Potholes

Are yours bigger, potholes of course?

How is your car surviving Winters hidden treasure named pothole covered with snow and slash? Do you live in the city where braking every bit of your car is also doing it’s part in economy by creating jobs?

Where are worst roads you have encountered? Are they in your town, city or other country, continent?

By reading articles about potholes among numerous search results I realized that this is simply an issue that we have to learn to live with, or maybe not? There is, for an example, in North America almost every city full of “proud” citizens who can’t say enough about size and number of their potholes, the way city is cooping with the problem, cost of repairing roads, damage to the vehicles, etc.

Can we accept this as being “product” of mother nature, blamed on weather, Winter and ice?

Sometimes is hard to believe that in 21st century there is no material that could improve and strengthen the road surface?

Are you refusing to accept that nothing can be done? Some say that by doing the road work in a way it has been done for so many decades, there is nothing else behind potholes then preservation of road construction jobs, creation of car repair workshop jobs and production of car replacement parts.

Is that another “business” of ours that is doing it’s part in further and further depleting Earth’s resources and unnecessarily destroying ecosystem? Is there anything we do good for future generations or we are selfishly trying to take with us to the other World as much cash as we can, even though we are already decade in to 21st century and by some scientists completely evolved grown-ups?
