I would like to talk about roads and cars the resin being that the roads are in suchpoor shape, giant pot holes bumps raised man hole covers and so much more its horrible. I spend A LOT of time and my working on my car and I love it dearly it is very sad to have to drive it on streets and roads that are so very very bad. There are holes in the street that can be as big as four feet wide and long that are over a half a foot deep riving on the street is like driving on a obstacle course and ever time I can't avoid one and hit it I can't help but yell out "ouch" because I know my poor car would be if it could. I am a little different then most people I kind of think of my car as a member of the family for many resins onemain one being that without it are daily lifes would be so very difficult also because even tho I have two it is the only one where I am and the only one we have so we rely on it for every day and night. As well as the fact that I built it and I feel that I gave it life and continue to keep italive it is also a friend it is always there for me and my family and I am always there for it. Having to make it drive down these horrible streets is like making a loved one eat something they get sick from it makes me sad. Every time I can't help but it a pott hole I see it as it would be if I were to mash my foot in to the concrete steps outside and have to keep walking around bare foot over pointy rocks all day. I'm not going to say where I live but we plain on taking pictures of all the really horrible pott hole (this will take a day or two because there are so many) in are area n sending them in to the news paper in hopes that they will atlest be filled with black top or gravel. So that the people where I live and there cars can drive on a street that is safe. I would like to hear crime others about the road conditions and there thought of them as well as the cars. Thank You for reading.

I am from Poland where roads are not the best. And I know a curious example that a man damaged his car obeying the traffic rules and after that was fined through the court. The court showed partiality and favoured police who declared he is not obeying traffic rules in full, whereas he damaged his car obeying them.

this sounds a familiar story for many drivers in the developing world. the government seems to be indifferent to the plight of drivers who everyday travel on rough and polka-dotted road of holes. there must be a way to account the government which is taking money from us to build roads that are passable and manageable to drive. this is to certain extent unacceptable.

I can understand your situation very well and i know how it feels like when u r driving on roads full of potholes and giant bumps. Bumps no doubt r necessary to reduce the speed of the vehicles on road but at times they r made so huge knowingly that it might cause break down of any vehicles. Roads r not being paid proper attention due to which one can find so many potholes that r very dangerous.
