driving on a town road and a highway are two completely different things. Town roads have a much lower speed rrate (although in some that is questionable) where the highways are regulated with (in some cases) a minimum and maximum limit.
Bottom line: It's a heck of a lot easier to avoid a pothole at 35 mph than 65 mph.
"It's been a tough winter" is an excuse, a lame one at that.
We've had colder and snowier winters and the only constant is that the roads get torn up as a result of overly aggressive plowing. When you try plowing any road with barely a measurable snowfall you are basically grinding the asphalt!
Once the plows have done their "job" any divots they created will expand into teeth-rattling craters in no time.
Isn't there someone in the transportation dept. that should be aware of and responsible for these repairs? Or is that another job that we motorists must do for the state?
