Sec.  392.14  Hazardous conditions; extreme caution.

    Extreme caution in the operation of a commercial motor vehicle shall 
be exercised when hazardous conditions, such as those caused by snow, 
ice, sleet, fog, mist, rain, dust, or smoke, adversely affect visibility 
or traction. Speed shall be reduced when such conditions exist. If 
conditions become sufficiently dangerous, the operation of the 
commercial motor vehicle shall be discontinued and shall not be resumed 
until the commercial motor vehicle can be safely operated. Whenever 
compliance with the foregoing provisions of this rule increases hazard 
to passengers, the commercial motor vehicle may be operated to the 
nearest point at which the safety of passengers is assured.
