18th Class (12th September 2012)

Back from investigation of Australia and it seems that the road in Australia is indeed very long and wide. Furthermore when it's raining or foggy it does really reduce the visibility of the driver greatly. This is all the hazards found while driving on the road in Australia.

The road in Tasmania.
From the picture I took above it seems that it's very vulnerable for the animals to cross the road easily and especially during night time, the light of the driver will easily distract the animal and animal could jump out from the bushes any time.

Vision of heavy raining.

Foggy weather.

Both picture above shows when heavy raining and foggy weather the driver will have difficulties in seeing the road ahead and identify the hazards on the road. Obstacles in front of the vehicle will not be seen by the drivers and especially for truck drivers, they require even further distance ahead of the vehicle to successfully stop the trucks.

Thermal camera will be a great assist for the driver and increase the safety of the driver while driving on the road as well as provide safety place for the wild animals in Australia.
