Potholes.

I went round a pothole today just a someone was climbing out of it!

Seriously though drivers should slow down and try to avoid such pits in the road. It saves me wear and tear on tyres and suspension.

That’s not the formal advice though, apparently you should never swerve to avoid a pothole because you’re more likely to have or cause an accident. That’s why potholes are such a problem.

I’ve just come home in a taxi from seeing my stepfather. Between roadworks with temporary lights (queues), diversions and potholes the taxi driver said driving these days isn’t pleasurable.

I agree with your taxi driver Urmstongran. Driving is one long struggle to avoid pot holes.

Another, potentially life threatening situation is worn away road markings. In a couple of places near me the white 'give way' lines at the junctions to roundabouts are completely worn to nothing. Ever time I pass I wonder if someone will just shoot out into the passing traffic.

Just in case anybody hasn’t seen it, the residents of Daventry have taken the matter into their own hands, with some very witty signs - Route 66 Potholes 😀
