| Warning: Jagged Road
Don't know if its been posted yet but it was raining tonight making it hard to see. Along 2nd going westbound between Main and Cambie where there is construction going on and the road is super jagged. Causing alot of cars to suddenly slow down.
I went through it today not knowing this, causing my car to slam to the ground as i went through it. One of my tires are deflating as we speak
Be careful out there guys!

96th between Scott Rd and 128th in Surrey is pretty fucked too.
If you stick in the left lane and dont expect it the road will throw you into on coming traffic.
They dug a trench to put in new sewer pipes. Instead of properly fixing the road I think they just filled it in. Now the pavement has sunk so you drive along and your car just sorta follows the rut which actually at one point almost goes into on coming traffic.

Thats what you guys get for ricing your cars... drive a normal non slammed car , and you'll be fine.
