How are the roads in your city/town

[AndreNY]

well after having couple of snow days before, NYC has turn into a big A$$ $hit hole as far as roads are concerned. there are soooooooooo many potholes that its pretty much crazy to drive any kind of car. im just glad my car is off the road till the spring, when i hope they start patching and fixing some of the roads up. Here are some pics to give you an idea what drivers in NYC have to deal with EVERY DAY

wow that is horrible, my roads are no where near those conditions. The most i get are some pot holes here and there on high traffic city streets.

for central NY state, the roads are somewhere between shitty and wicked ghey.

[OOMPH!]

Re: How are the roads in your city/town

Andre, I think Philly might be the only true competition for NY when it comes to poor streets. We have these little mountains in the middle of our lanes. Whenever I see them, I have to adjust my car so my tires are on the top of them or else my oil pan is history. :roll:

If you've ever driven through this state, you'll know what I mean. :?

damn, your making california roads look like glass paved beauties from heaven!!

here is a pic from my street, all roads are nice as hell around here, I can drive my very low M3 without bottoming out all over this town, and I have never bent a wheel or popped a tire in my life! (knock on wood)...

ryan, you live in the nice part of cali. i work in hollywood. all i ahve to say is i ahve been through 4 sets of tires in the last year and i have totaled a bunch of rims, INCLUDING a whole set of 17 inch alpinas. :(

Damn Andre! San Francisco roads are just as bad as the ones you pictured (except for the first one...that takes the cake). I've gone through a few tires here and there because of it.

shahe: too much $$$ to get em repaired???


As for boise, they're still covered in snow/ice. 2 nights ago, I was driving in a shitty ass storm, and coming up to this stop sign about 1/2 mile from my house there's easy 2" thick solid, CLEAR ice on the road. I see this glassiness from probably 100 yards away, and decide to slow down about 200 feet from the stop sign (from 20). I slid through the intersection, and didn't stop until about 40 feet beyond.

Tara was behind me,. Freaked the shit out of her. It was like 2am so there were no cars, the canal was a ways away, so I thought it was kinda fun :)

The roads around here arent all that great either, in my town in order to get to a grocery store from my house you have to take a road wich consist of bumps the make you feel like your getting airborn in your seat when traveling at 50 mph, speed limit is 40 mph and i never go at 40 its just too slow for me on the road.

At the bottome of gravel driveway there is a long skinny ditch lining alond the bottom and pot holes around it and whenever i go down my driveway i have to drive less then 5 mph or else i will risk using my air dam as a shovel, trust me i have done it before first few times were funny cuz i got a load of gravel in my air dam. Its more annoying now then anything else. Im on stock height too i think its when i take a sharp turn onto the main street

Yeah, I was full out slideways for 50 feet or so. Still can't figure that out. I didn't move the wheel the whole time.
