Horrifying pile up on the motorway

That's scary. I hate situations like that. You should never drive faster than conditions allow, but if the conditions dictate that you drive 15 mph on the highway, you are either going to get rear ended, or else cause the car behind you to panic brake, and then they get rear ended. I guess the best option is to slow down before entering the fog so the cars behind you can see that you're slowing and be ready to do the same. But if there's no time...

There's no good answer.
