Fog in Doha

How to survive a roundabout when every body has their indicators on ?

Why do people drive with sunglasses when there is fog ?

They use sunglasses during fog because the polarization properties of the lenses allows them to see a little clearer into the fog. Its a trick that skiiers have used for years, the sunglasses cause greater contrast between dark and light area, and thus create better perception of visibility than the overwhelming light volumes entering your eyes with ordinary glasses or with no glasses at all.

Ah, now I understand why Qatar is still a developing country.

it doesn't matter that they drive with the indicators on... when there is no fog they never indicate their movements anyway, so that you are still confused and still gotta watch carefully for some idiot cutting you off without any signals..

...not big difference

very true and agree with others as using a hazard light in fog could really confuse the back comming traffic.

Rizk, you really have a narrow minded, its fog vision glasses counter part of night vision. lol ..

BUT Some people are really turning ON their 2 signal lights indicator which I might think without their knowledge they will give danger and confusion to other motorist because we cannot know if they are turning or not especially at the R/A.

Hope they will finally realize and understand that, wish they have the same mind power as Rizk. :)
