have seen worse a few months back one night, i had to pull over when doing a coastal drive it was that bad.

Do enjoy it though, makes it eerie :)

i live in Harrisdale and work in Jandakot so to get to work i drive thru a semi rural swamp like bush area and not only does it record the coldest temps in Perth in this area but it also gets some crazy fog in the mornings. Pretty common to only have max 10mtrs visability

on the cruise last night I was going down north lake road towards leach hwy, could see about 20m in front, couldnt see ANY slight bends in the road, only chance had was to dotted lines on the RHS of the car. Then out of nowhere, red traffic lights which appeared to be a tiny intersection. It ended up being leach hwy. Felt very weird not being able to see Toyota or Bunnings

Spotted some poor bastard that didnt see the slight bend on southern river rd after the bridge at 11:45 and put his rodeo in a stormwater drain. Ambulance had to attend.

Also CSB
Was following the missus home from clarkson about 11:30 just when the freeway visibility dropped to about 50m passing lake monger, No less than 20 cars were sitting on 100 going though the 60kph road works only to see her white xr6t and stand on the brakes refusing to pass thinking it was a undercovery. el o el
/End CSB

In bunbury its pretty normal, in perth its rare to spread so far and to be so dense.

I finish work at 4am so it's pretty common for me to be driving home in fog with very low visibility during winter.
