FRESNO CO, Calif. (FOX26) — A close call on Manning Avenue Tuesday morning shows the dangers of driving in dense fog.

CHP Fresno says a diesel tanker driver attempted to cross traffic in low visibility.

A Tacoma driver, traveling at a reduced speed due to the fog, was able to brake just in time, avoiding what could have been a serious or deadly crash.

Everyone involved walked away unharmed.

Authorities are reminding drivers that in foggy conditions, if you can’t see other vehicles, they can’t see you.

Slowing down, buckling up, and delaying travel when visibility is poor can save lives.
