Need a Pothole Fixed? Do It Yourself

For more than two months, it turned out, Primo Vannicelli has been trying to get the city to repair the pothole in front of his house, to no avail.

“I’ve been calling the city, I email them, they don’t do it, and every day it gets worse,” he said. Yes, he understood the city was in a budget crunch, he said, and that it might explain why no one had responded to his request.

“But I mean it’s actually dangerous, because you can see stones flying around,” he said. “I’ve been hit once. I was just getting into my car there, and a stone flies, because a truck hit it, boom!”

So on Wednesday, Vannicelli decided to take the city’s budget problems into his own hands. He took an orange bucket, filled it with quick dry cement, and gathered up the chunks of concrete he collected.

when the blizzard hit here in DC, the county wasn’t going to clear our street, so finally the neighbors got tgether and hand shoveled the block.

it’s a cul de sac, so, the county makes it low priority.

This is why I caution about driving European luxury cars in San Diego. I frequently see in downtown Porsches and sports cars going over potholes and the uneven trolley tracks. It is painful to watch the refined suspensions and low profile wheels of those cars getting beat up.

San Diego is not bad. The roads in Chicago and Back East are a lot worse thanks to the cold and hot weather conditions.

My friend’s car in Chicago came out of alignment from hitting a huge pot hole. The steering looks out of center now, even with an alignment.
