Amen to that! Leave extra room between you and that truck, bus or car in front of you so you have ample time to react when that gaping hole appears from under them.

Yesterday riding a back road I encountered what I like to call the double pothole. Two equally big potholes about a inch from each other basically forcing you on to the wrong side of the road to go around them. I should have took a pic.

Even in Florida the potholes are miserable.  Of course, we are also using so much freaking sand in the mix that it's like glass.  So to combat that they use broken shells.

No.  I am not joking.

I've got to love the Hudson Co. NJ answer to pot holes. While sitting at a light today along a truck route I see 2 "workers" fill a couple of smaller pot holes (maybe 2' in diameter), pat the tops of them with the shovel and leave.

My guess is those holes will be open again in about 3 minutes. or the first 18 wheeler the rolls a couple of axels across them.
