A front section of a motor vehicle includes a fog light system with indirect lighting. The indirect lighting improves an operator's vision in fog and is obtained by projecting the beams of light of the front fog lights so that they are oriented in such a way as to leave a zone or corridor not directly lit immediately ahead of the motor vehicle. A projection of light beams solely outwardly or upwardly at an angle of 45, 60 or 90 degrees with respect to an axis extending in the direction of travel and through the projecting fog light is preferred. The fog light can be positioned such that the body or roof portion of a vehicle itself acts to prevent any inwardly directing light. A rectangular shield mounted on the vehicle roof with the lower portion axially extending further than the upper portion can be relied upon to block downwardly directed light. Tubular or rectangular shields positioned on the roof act together with the roof portion forward of the fog light or lights to prevent downwardly directing beams of light while allowing for upwardly projected beams at angles which range up to 45, 60 or 90 degrees. The beam of light originates at an axis which is parallel with the longitudinal axis of the vehicle and intersects the projecting fog light. The fog light can be mounted on the roof so as to be rotatable from a closed, flush position to a pop up position.
