Overview
- UK outlets highlight a TikTok tip from @chegeceping to clear fog by turning on air conditioning, selecting fresh-air intake, directing airflow to the windscreen, and activating the rear defogger.
- The RAC corroborates the approach, advising drivers to use air conditioning with the heater, aim airflow at the glass, and turn off recirculation to dry cabin air quickly.
- The motoring body reiterates that driving with obscured windows is illegal because impaired visibility endangers road users.
- To prevent misting and interior icing, the RAC recommends regularly cleaning interior glass, ventilating the car when safe, and using shaving foam as a short-term anti-fog barrier.
- If demisting remains poor, the RAC advises a mechanical check for issues with air conditioning, temperature controls, filters, vents, heater components, thermostats, or coolant.
