Clue/Question:  What the foggy night gave the driver.

Answer:  THE “CREEPS”

(Another fun pun!  Good scrambling, nothing too obvious.  Some of the worst multi-car/truck accidents I’ve ever heard or read about involved fog.  It is nothing to mess with.  If you happen to run into a heavy fog, they always tell you slow down, maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead of you, use your flasher/hazard lights to warn the vehicle behind you, and NOT to use the high beams of your headlights.  Low beams are okay, but fog lights are better, if you got ’em.  Be smart when driving in fog!  As Sgt. Phil Esterhaus used to say:  Let’s be careful out there.)   — YUR
