DAMN POTHOLES!!!!
Ok I just replaced my tires this year did an alignment ...front end was replaced in the fall...now if the potholes aren't gonna be fixed....someone else will be fixing my car!!!!!!!!!!!!

See it's not bad when you can avoid them...but when some A-hole desides that he's gonna drive like a maniac...this is the Sault not Nascar....and push me into a massive pothole...he's a lucky boy that I don't have road-rage.....YET....

I have to agree with you crazymamma.... I went down kohler street on monday night and I was like HOLY [censored]....... theres ones on that street a basketball could hide in...... OR my whole torso..... crazy crazy road........ that whole street.. bigginngs. simpson, kohler needs to be repaved... YOu would think with our hospitals being there it would be done... and these roads were like this even before I could drive.. so thats a 13 yrs ago.... or more when I lived on kohler... I remember ridding bike infront of alex muir school and going [censored] over teakettle.... ALWAYS been like that.....

Funny you should say that ~~~~~ I use to live on Kohler a while back and it's always been really really bad.

[J*B]

Try John street, that's a dandy array of holes..

I can understand why they can't be repaving holes all winter long. I don't understand why they can't at least fill holes with gravel until they can do a more permanent repair. At least then we'd be just driving over bumps rather than falling into canyons.

Does anyone of you realize the expense of just putting a temp patch in. It cost just as much to fix it in the summer. Patches this time of year will not last and once the water gets in and freezes it push right back out and we have a hole again within weeks.

I don't like the holes either but it up to all of us to drive in a manner to avoid them and drive slowly when one can't go around.

I know all about road construction and cost.. LOL... BUT the whole thing is our damn city has not fixed kohler street, bigginnings simpson etc IN like I said atleast 13 yrs.... they fill the holes with crappy ashphalt... then the following winter its wore out again.......

them three roads inperticular are brutal... and kohler has atleast 4 big apartment buildings that houses older people.. with older people you usually get nice newer cars... and they are lower to the ground.. I drive a grand marquise with air ride suspension... and it sits a little higher cause I have my air limiter turned up for it to do this.. YES so it does not look like such a grandma grandpa car excuse the expression... ITS decked out a little to suit my likings and I was scared as hell going down there.... ID hate be in an ambulance if it had to go flying down any of them roads...

I don't care how much it costs. Does anyone know how much TAX we pay? I EXPECT these roads to be in better shape period.
Swirving around the roads avoiding these pot holes is going to cause accidents. These are more than just pot holes, these roads are a complete mess and have been for years. There is no excuse whatsoever for it.

A whole lot of common sense is not used when filling pot-holes either. This past summer, a huge pot-hole developed near the end of our street at the stop sign (could not go around it), When it became impossible to avoid I called the city. WOW 2 days, and a few man hours later it was fixed. The kicker..............the whole curb including the newly patched hole was dug up the next day in preparation for laying new asphalt on the entire street. Our tax dollar at work. Ha !

What kills me is it takes 5 guys for one pothole.

No no, only one - maybe two. The other three are just there to pass the coffee and donuts around. =)
