Why does lucas reagent gives immediate cloudiness with 3 degree alcohol?

the reaction of alcohols with lucas reagent is based on the intermediate carbocation thus the rxn will proceed faster if the intermediate formed is stable ( the formation of C+ is R.D.S step of rxn ) and among 1 deg , 2 deg and 3 deg the most stable C+ is formed at 3 degree C nd hence an immediate rxn occurs.
