Another VERY bad spot is the one going through regent square to point breeze, forget the name but it meets up with penn ave between two gas stations…i have to zig zag that entire street to stay safe from potholes and cagers on the other side dodging holes

braddock ave… yeah there was one a few weeks ago near the gas station on the left… it was atleast 8" deep and 15" diameter. we took a cone from the gas station and stuck it in the middle of it to warn the people.

I wish I could blow a pot hole up to make it bigger, which would hopefully get it fixed… or just swallow cars to the middle of the earth.
