 More potholes - AshT
On the BBC this morning: -

news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/kent/8599513.stm

I completely understand the guy's frustration at the inaction by the council; there's a heavily used stretch of road close to us - in a 40 zone - where it's common to see local drivers weaving around the potholes and non-locals having their teeth shaken out. One of of my neighbours and I have both filed complaints to the council over the state of the road with no results.

As said it's a very heavily used stretch of road, speeds are often high, and some of the potholes I've seen while out walking the dog are a good 3 inches deep - just waiting for the accident now, and the subsequent statement from the council about deep regret, priorities, and limited resources.

Edit - apologies, should have posted this in Motoring. Could a moderator move this please?
