|  Pothole Thread 2009
What a nightmare. Have to deal with:
High snow not melting (lowered cars ftl)
Side streets not plowed, no where to park
Parked cars sticking out in the middle of street
Black ice every night
And now potholes!
Use this thread to let people know where to watch out for potholes.

Northbound Lions Gate Bridge, middle lane, at the south end, has a monster pothole.
And the right lane of Oak Street Bridge southbound is a disaster area. Stay away!

stay on the right lane on oak going north bound, there's a small pot hole past half way, but can be easily avoided. Left lane going north bound is pretty bad.

My entire car almost sunk into one a few nights ago. My car has pretty much never been abused as much as it has this last winter

Kingsway heading into Burnaby by Boundary Rd, middle lane before the bus lane ends, STAY THE FUCK OUT OF THAT LANE! Also, a little further up, I think in the same lane or maybe on the passing lane is another pot hole, I don't remember.

hastings near sushitown/capitol hill heading eastbound towards barnet, there's two HUGE mother fucking potholes there, but they're temporrarily filled in with black rocks. Still a bit of a dip (since rocks have moved) for my suspension.
