The potholes are bad, I agree. But, what's even worse is being blasted by huge chunks of salt everytime you drive. Especially with the 370's propensity to kick up debris.

I lived in NE Ohio (Cleveland), and we had similar roads there: pot holes, rocks etc. I had to zig-zag around them. I decided to move to Georgia, where the roads are much better. I do not understand why municipalities do not spend some money to lay down decent asphalt. I know it cost money, but not doing anything make the area look like a 3rd world country - and it is one of the main reasons I left NE Ohio.

I'd hope the roads are better in Georgia than Ohio, as there arn't as many freeze/thaw cycles which kills the roads

I am just disappointed that the US government bullshits its citizens about war on crime/war on drugs/war on terror but there is no war on potholes! I want a fcking war on potholes!
