Default South Perth gets flooded!

Well I'm sure you are all tired of car pics, so today I got you something else
What happened was that a big (over 1m diameter) water pipe burst just around the corner from my place and sprayed water everywhere and damaged part of the freeway on-ramp. I was at work during the worst of it but there was still a fair bit of water when I arrived.
When we got home our jeans and shoes were covered in mud - I felt like a little kid again



at least one person had an appropriate car for the conditions



this is the 'crater' that was created on the freeway:





this is one of the carparks, not sure if anything (cars) is under the water



the view from the bridge over the freeway - empty since the road was closed. We still got kicked off by the cops for some reason :x




and finally these are the people supposed to be fixing it - standing around talking
