Coming off La Caleta slip road onto the main highway into the city last night I lost the two from wheels of the car in these man made holes. They opened up the slip road so we can now get onto the highway without going right up to GDG. I got out to inspe t the damage and noticed these holes were left behind after they had removed the steel barriers that separate the roads, these are perfect rectangular holes in a perfect line and obviously made by a cutting machine of some description, but they removed the barriers and just left these holes uncovered, there is about 10-12 of them.
I noticed that there was about 4 other cars pulled into the side repairing blown wheels, now if a bike hits these then he will be flung into the centre of the highway traffic, it is a huge deal if you think about the cost this has on people's vehicles not to mention the amount of families using this highway with kids on their bikes, there is going to be death here if there already isn't.
But thinking about this, got me wondering. These are engineers leftovers, but how exactly do regular pot holes come about, I was trying to figure it out, I mean, where does it go? The roads off Las Americas right now are really bad with holes, Las Americas itself is the best it's been but the slip roads are a mess, where does the material from a pot hole actually go, and how, they can't all sink as there are too many, that would mean our roads are as airy as an Aero chocolate bar.
