jafo105 39057 Report post Posted March 15, 2014 It's Time For Everyone's Favorite Spring Time Game. Guess How Deep That Pothole Really is? I know that there is nothing funny about potholes. They cause serious damage to vehicles every year. Please share your Canadian pothole finds or comments here. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CristyCurves 169032 Report post Posted March 15, 2014 Not much of a story but I hit one pretty hard tonight, on the bi hi on my way out to Bayers Lake. Hard enough that I'll probably need my car looked at:( It's that time of year though when all the winter frost, cold, snow and rain reeks havoc on the roads causing nasty pot holes. I think, so the article below eludes, you can make a claim against the city if your car is badly damaged by one. http://globalnews.ca/news/1079837/potholes-my-car-is-damaged-what-can-i-do/ 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Midnite-Energies 110563 Report post Posted March 16, 2014 I expect Halifax will be broke this year from all the damage I've seen. Not sure what it is but this year is horrendous for holes and chipped top layers. It's like an obstacle course. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frank97500 18478 Report post Posted March 16, 2014 Not too bad here in Gander... a few bridges on he TCH very bad, especially one before the Town of Appleton!

Guest N***he**Ont**y Report post Posted March 16, 2014 I swear that Sudbury is the City Of Potholes and not The City Of Lakes that they so proudly proclaim. I saw a Cavelier almost swallowed whole the other morning on Regent Street. I will post some pictures soon! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brad 49548 Report post Posted March 16, 2014 Most potholes I don't mind just ducking around; it's the potholes on the bridges that get me worried! :) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
