Potholes are very dangerous to motorcycles, especially to those who do no know to expect potholes. Similarly, if they are in a bike lane, or near the curb with bike traffic, it can be very bad.

I can appreciate the desire to slow down traffic, but as a bicyclist, riding on one of these pock-marked roads is a painful experience!

We call potholes “traffic calming depressions.”

Guess it depends on the size of the potholes. If one was in an ambulance, they might not be all that fun. Fire trucks may look strong and tough, but because of their weight, substantial damage can be done if their tires hit the potholes the wrong way.
Just fill them in before they do more damage and require an even bigger use of “social resources”.

Maybe put those metal plates over potholes? It’s probably cheaper than filling them in, calms traffic, and doesn’t damage vehicles.

@Vin
Metal plates are hell for our two-wheeled friends. No very good for quick stops with four wheels either.

As a cyclist, I’d like to see high quality, pothole-free roads. In my day-to-day experience narrowing a road (full length, not just at pinch points) seems the best way to slow speeding traffic without inconveniencing cyclists and motorcyclists.
I’ve seen first-hand that slower roads through villages and towns do encourage drivers to avoid these roads where possible. And hence the road undergoes less wear and tear and garners fewer potholes.

If they were in the U.S., Essex parish could be setting themselves up for a lawsuit if a pothole contributed to a motorcyclist or bicyclist being injured.
This would be in even more true if the specific condition which caused the injury had been reported to the parish.

I’m a big fan of brick roads. It’s enough to calm auto traffic, but not so much you can’t ride a bicycle.
April 23rd, 2009 at 6:52 am
I’d think the potholes would be distracting and up the accident rate relative to the amount of traffic.

Depression is the right word.
