According to the National Weather Service, Tips for driving in dense fog.

Slow down and allow extra time to reach your destination.
Make your vehicle visible to others both ahead of you and behind you by using your low-beam headlights since this means your taillights will also be on. Use fog lights if you have them.
Never use your high-beam lights. Using high beam lights causes glare, making it more difficult for you to see what’s ahead of you on the road.
Leave plenty of distance between you and the vehicle in front of you to account for sudden stops or changes in the traffic pattern.
To ensure you are staying in the proper lane, follow the lines on the road with your eyes.
