Have a look at these pics and if you drive any of these roads regular, stay away from these potholes. One of them is 6' deep!!! Or is that a typo?

What exactly do we pay road tax for?!!! is it not for the upkeep and maintenance of roads like these... :p Some of them in Dundee, Broughty ferry and Monifieth are pretty shocking!!:eek: Nothing ever seems to get done about them either. :mad:

ROFLMAO.

Although I'm not the only muppet by the loks of things.... It's not 15" deep either. It's only 5" deep.

I guess we're a pair of muppets then.:eek::D

Renfrewshire is a nightmare too, particularly around the Bridge of Weir/Kilmacolm area. Pothole after pothole, not good when you are trying to look after those precious alloys.

You report them to Renfrewshire Council and they do nothing, some are so bad at the moment that my old man made 3 calls to the police at the weekend and surprise surprise a couple have been filled in i noticed when driving to work today......
