How bad are your roads?
#41
Palm Bay, FL
If you are on the correct side at the correct time... you wont hit any pot holes. My girlfriend bent her OEM rims to hell (thats cuz she sucks at driving), daddy got her new rims and tires. Then she hit another hole... but only bent it a little . She kills me
I think my town' roads SUCK! So many roads here have lines of pot holes, so many roads have those damn man holes stickin up.
I think Palm Bay road is the worst though, after that its gotta be the back roads

The quality of the roads and the way roads are repaired around here are atrocious...sometimes even downright third world...they will eventually rattle your car apart...Just one of the many reasons I can't wait to leave...

My God! I would love it if our potholes were 3 inches deep. I swear I saw a pothole so big, it would've ripped the control arm off my car, along with the axle and tie rods, had I hit it. I saw this one minivan with a sideways tire/rim, halfway into a parking lot (probably trying to pull over, but when he turned the wheel came loose) right after said pothole on central ave. That leads me to believe that's what caused it, but I didn't see it. Said pothole has since been fixed, but more and more happen every day.

I love that avatar maximadave, and yeah we got pretty good roads in Murf. and Nashville, but when have they not been under construction... They are doing all kinds of stuff around here in the boro... I tore a front sway bar bracket off my saturn... crap car anyhow...

6 months ago I hit a pothole in CT so deep it ripped apart my rear muffler section pipe...3 months later I was trying to avoid that same pothole and I hit another pothole and damaged it again.

I think I will take it upon myself to take some pics of some of the ghetto roads around here...One of my favorite roads has random sections dug up and covered with washboarded dirt and gravel...and I have no idea why they did this...
#56
No place has worse roads than in Montreal...our potholes have swallowed dump trucks & buses (sink holes) downtown....and now there is a gang stealing man hole covers so that they can cash them in for their metal content....that will rip your car apart as the man holes here are right where your wheel drives over on the streets! Try and beat that anyone!
Victoria BC and BC in general has amazingly smooth challenging twisties with very few cops!

Maryland has nice freeways.

yea Worcester roads stink. There sre some good areas, meaning your not banging and bouncing for to long . Then there are the spots where they do construction and leave the road amess for a year or so. i have wacked the max on a few potholes and cracks. Ive been up to the burlington area of Mass and that was real nice. Getting on the hiway with no cracks in the pavement was very nice. Gotta agree that in the suth is real nice. I have been to Fl and the roads where like glass compared to Mass.
Also need to remember the Northeast gets winter and things heave and move and crack. The south not as much

Northeast Houston TX, everything here seems smooth and pretty str8... no problems yet so far. Thats one of the reasons i bought the maxima yesterday instead of the acura rsx i almost bought....alot more power and acceleration, not as good a handler and not as nimble as an rsx, but you dont really need it here cuz there just aren't any curves!

hands down NYC has the worst roads...Wisconsin has nice smooth roads though. Man...NYC roads messed up my tie roads and ball joints. If I get an alignment its ruined only a week afterwards. Thats why it is not worth it to have a lowered car here. Only here will you find potholes more than half a foot deep and a few feet in diameter in the middle of highways where cars go more than 70+ mph.
Long Island is the better part of NY when talking about roads

I think the roads in my city is pretty decent compared to some other cities that I have been to. It's just that when they are under construction, it takes too long to finish. I.E. A highway in my city has been under construction since before I was born.
