Pothole spotted thread
 
Post your spots of huge potholes.

There is a huge one on Oak St Bridge northbound on the slower lane

41st eastbound after Victoria. Huge manhole covers sticking out in the middle of the lane.

knight and kingsway...man holes on unpaved street

Not sure if this counts, but from the top of the hill (just after Deer Lake Parkway heading North) to Canada Way on Royal Oak is all gravel and unpaved streets, so the manhole covers are exposed. If you're lowered, AVOID AVOID AVOID!

what i hate more than pothole is exposed manholes. Those fckers will literally split your front bumper into half if you are lowered.

Went over this one yesterday right when i changed lane. i should go double check my tires since it was making a weird, unbalance like sound when i was driving today.

West Harrison FSR was pretty bad this time around.

yup...confirm saw this huge one yesterday on Oak bridge..you either have to veer your car into the other lane to not go over it..or you'd be pretty close to the damn wall trying to avoid it in your own lane..

Drove there yesterday but didn't notice any potholes. Which of the 3 lanes are you talking about?

Wrong Marine Drive, you are on Marine Way.

Marine Drive is the single-lane road on the inside of Marine Way.

Here's a map:

Drove there this afternoon and i was wondering why the hell it was like that when they just finish paving it not so long ago, it was a complete shit job.

Yeah, went through it again couple weeks ago. I was kinda in a rush around 4 am to pick my friend up and forgot about it haha, it was too late when i realized that that area was unpaved, man was it brutal. Since then i just take the long way to get to my friend's place.

FN-2199 01-16-2011 07:50 AM

North bound Knight St. in the left lane, I almost shat my pants after seeing a massive pot hole and running over it in the very last second. Then unexpectedly, another one decided to soil my pants further in the same lane.
