I live in the richest county in my state so the roads are pretty nice. Sorry you have to deal with such shitty roads though Anon.
>richest
It has nothing to do with rich. i vacationed in one of the richest parts of the country a couple of weeks ago and saw potholes everywhere, I live in fricking nowhere and we have none.
>i vacationed in one of the richest parts of the country
Where specifically? There's only about 600k people here so the roads don't have millions of immigrants and tourists to tear them up.
>I live in the poorest countries
I can tell.
>seething over literally nothing
Read the sentence after I said the roads are nice where I live, then rub your 2 brain cells together and tell me how you came to this conclusion.
>how you came to this conclusion.
you never lead with a pompous statement
>Where specifically?
Martha's Vineyard. Not exactly a tourist mecca, I only went there because I'm a pilot and a former boss lives there.
I live in the poorest countries but my car have no issues with these holes.
>frick you I got mine
I keep saying this attitude, and it's getting old
Well? Have you got yours? Cuz I got mine, and yer gonna have to pull yourself up by the bootstraps. Maybe start by getting a job?
Wear a hi viz vest and fill it in yourself. To piss them off cover the whole fricking manhole cover so they learn to fix shit on their own before pothole pirates have to.
they're not going to clean the sewers either not their problem
This if it's a low speed, low traffic road you don't even need signs to get away with it. Just some cones and a high vis and a truck outfitted with yellow strobes. You can get cold mix asphalt and a hand tamper for very cheap at home DP.
The stuff doesn't need to fully cure to be open to traffic, so you can pick up your shit and leave right after compacting it with the tamper
Councils don’t have the budget for repairs.
Allegedly.
Probably because they aren’t regulated and spend on unwarranted things.
If i recall correctly the AAI i think it is,have said it would take £5billion and 30yrs to repair every pothole.
On average,every road is resurfaced every 151yrs.
Too busy circlejerking, pretending they're in politics and awarding themselves pay packages.
thats not even that bad it's mostly flat
not bad for trucks
horrendous for most nice cars
Where's that "trucks bad cars gud" moron when we need him
its road stud tier
I drove a C5 citreon (with hydraulic suspension) - basically the only reasonable car (not huge or expensive) with good suspension. While its better than alot of cars it still can't isolate against speed bumps, rail tracks, sunken manhole covers etc. Old barges are also out since those have bad noise insulation.
Is it over? Should i just get a dodge ram?
>speedbumps
The c5 hasn't got enough wheel travel to be able to take them at full speed like the older citroens (even xantia and xm have more), but it will still be better than a dodge ram. Intermediate suspension position should be ideal.
>rail tracks
Odd, hydro suspension should work great on those, unless your electronic control is forcing the suspension into hard mode when it doesn't have to. Try going through it with one of the doors half open to see if it feels better. There are mods to make the suspension softer, too.
>sunken manhole covers
The short travel but very sharp imperfections aren´t the hydropneumatics forte, but lowering the tire pressure/softer tires makes a huge difference, just make sure you are not going too fast and overheat the tires when the tire pressure is low.
>Attend city council meetings
>Present them with repair bills
>Make a massive fricking stink about their negligence being responsible for your damage
The important thing is to not stop. Attend every meeting and start forwarding your bills to them. Harass the absolute shit out of them and then sue them if they retaliate in any way.
You need to out boomer the boomer.
*replaces shocks, control arms and strust in 5 minutes*
it's nice being a big trugg owner
just drive around it
It's a tax on car owners
Local governments need to direct their limited funds towards important things like LGBTQIP+ BIPOC safe libraries and swim centres, rainbow zebra crossings and walk signals with dresses
Graffiti the Black personword over potholes until the city does something.
There was some guy who graffiti-ed potholes to look like buttholes, and added large dicks pointing at them. Apparently this caused the potholes to be repaired very quickly, but it also caused increased police car patrols in the area.
>*city closes lane with pothole causing massive traffic jams*
>*opens lane*
>they just scrubbed the graffiti off
i am not encouraging illegal activity, but if some hooligan spraypaints a dick or a swastika over a pothole, the city will usually fix it in less than a week.
PAY ALL THEM TAXES BOY THEYLL NEVER FIX THEM DAMN ROADS. ABSOLUTE JOKE OF AN INFRASTRUCTURE. POORLY DESIGNED. POORLY MAINTAINED
