Default The Official MD/DC/NOVA Spotted a Pothole Thread

So over the past few days as the roads are slowly being cleared the potholes are showing themselves our roads look more like the surface of the moon. If we all post were we see the big ones maybe we can prevent damage to our cars.

Loudoun/Fairfax County VA: State Rt. 772 between Brambleton and Rt. 28 at Sterling. There are pot holes so large in various locations that I almost wrecked my 4x4 pickup when I hit one! So glad I wasn't driving the S2000!

Potholes are reason #847476121 to own a winter beater in addition to a sport car.

I saw DOT pickup trucks making a stop every 500 ft or so in Alexandria the other day and doing quick patch/cover jobs on potholes as big as manholes.

All I can say is that they are everywhere!

if you dont report it and bend a rim they arent liable. But if you do and they havent fixed it within some period of time i believe they are.

They need to try again on Huntington Ave. Their quick patch lasted all of 2 days.
