The paper analyses traffic accidents caused by low visibility due to fine aerosols of fog and/or smoke from wildfires. Based on the analysis of Russian and foreign sources of information, it was found that the share of such accidents can reach 0,7–5 % of the total number of accidents. Compared to accidents under good visibility conditions, fog/smoke related crashes tend to result in more severe injuries and involve more vehicles. The paper also provides an overview of models for assessing crash occurrence under different levels of visibility with respect to temporal distribution and influential factors of accidents and estimating the effects of various factors on injury severity in low visibility conditions, – all developed on the basis of logistic ordinal regression.
