Potholes in Baxenden
 

Me and mi sis where on our way through Baxenden yesterday in her new car, there was an ambulance coming the other way so she swerved to get out the way only to encounter two of the largest potholes i've ever seen...they must have been at least half a metre in width and quite a few inches deep, two of them in the road just BEFORE you get to the 'no mans land' bit between Bash and Hollands pies...we ended up with a knackered tyre thanx to them :mad: and had to go buy a whole new tyre

has anyone else encountered these huge craters yet? :mad::mad::mad:

get back up with a camera and tape measure before teh council can fill it in and send them teh bill , i think roads are covered by lancashire county council but get your evidence before reporting it or they will fill it in and say what hole ?

big difference between a hole in the road and a child thats 3ft - 5ft tall and moving and if you cant tell the difference between a pot hole and a child then perhaps its you who needs to examine his driving ability

as far as i am aware hitting a pothole wont fail your driving test where as hitting a child would

take no notice flashy , unfortunatly over the years computers and the internet have become more easily accesable which although a good thing has sadly left it easier for simpletons to use as well
