I hate fog

[midden]

Yes , i hate fog too,,,,butttttt more to the point i hate fog lights,,,those on car driving around two weeks after the fog has cleared,,,just more glare in your eyes,,flash em i say!!!!! :eek


I went out in fog last year ,early one morning, i ended up riding with the bloody visor up to see,,wet face or what?

Strangely enough driving home from work yesterday morning  in a slight mist the car in front seemed most upset when I put my full beams on.  The way i see if the fog was dense enough to have the fogs on then My beams should have dazzle me not him instead of his fog lights dazzling me.


Even better the amount of arses who  figure conditions dangerous enough to warrant the use of fog lights then proceeded to weave through the traffic using all lanes at speed.  Much like arses on cycles who consider flashing lights as life saving force field.

Surreal this morning. Couldn't see the white line, the edge of the road, nada. I think that's the worst I've ever experienced. Thank Christ my trip was only a short one (in the car - don't trust other road users to see the bike's tail lights). I echo JZS's sentiments - keep safe all!

On that note - when riding (as I have no other option...  :rolleyes ), if I see a car coming up behind me, I will flash the rear brake light a few times, maybe even flash the hazards / alternate indicatos for a few flashes - anything to make them aware I'm there. Once they are, at least they're looking out for you.

I did an early morning run thro the B500 Black Forest this year in thick fog and it was raining, you could only see 2 metres in front, scary,  i pulled over and waited for a vehicle to pass than followed its lights.

Ain't it just - completely relying on the other guys vision - and you just have to look at that 100 vehicle pile up on the bridge in Kent a few months back, to see just how many are quite happy driving blind!
