   When you see the windows starting to fog up, you pull over and start   
   the "defogging" equipment, wait for the windows to clear well enough   
   for driving, and THEN continue driving.   
      
   If you open the windows a little and set the vents, etc. properly   
   before even starting out, then there's less chance of the windows   
   fogging up in the first place.
