The GPS traffic warnings were showing problems with fog on the M4. Thankfully, I didn&#8217;t encounter any real fog on either the M4 or M5.

Also by this point the car was fully encrusted by black salt throuwn up by other vehicles. You could hardly see the lights.<\/p>\n<p>Firther along the journey the weather changed yet again and by Bodmin I was driving through torrential rain. Talk about changable weather!
