POTHOLES in Fairfax County

I encoundered a very crappy pothole situation in Chantilly. Both sides of the road, you could barely miss them even swerving. Thought for sure I was going to crack a rim or at the very least mess up my suspension.

So I did what WTOP tells you to do and got on the googles, looked up VDOT and sent a report in. And you know what? They are now filled in just one week later!

Who knew, government can actually get something right!! All Chantilly residents are welcome and can thank me.

I'm waiting for Al Gore to come to Fairfax County. Potholes are caused by Global Warming!

Nevermind the cold winter we had which froze the moisture underneath the roads which then caused the road to freeze and crack up. Global Warming!

Has anyone noticed that when you mention the cold, "Once again, you are confusing weather and climate." But then they say things like heat and storms are solid evidence of Global Warming. Lefty logic.

If it's like what I encountered, give it until the work week; then they'll check it out. It'll be messy when they fix it, but a few days later you'll be glad they did.

Fairfax County VDOT has always been shitty. All you have to do is drive through Clifton and see cold patch over cold path over cold patch for the past 5 years. Not they have the roads marked for partial replacement, which means they grind away the outer half of the road and then pave it like they have been doing for eons. Then that stuff starts to warp and come apart. for one of the most prosperous counties in the US, the roads get no love.

Look at all these socialists crying for the governmant to take care of them. Just pay for it yourself instead of begging for a handout.

Well, I'll be damned. My hat is off to VDOT. They are filling the potholes I reported Friday evening as we speak.

I really was surprised. But yeah, agreed. Hat's off to VDOT on this. If you see a shitty road condition (especially not on a primary road, in my case) send it in to VDOT. The road's still rough, but now at least driveable without swerving.

It really is. So is Old Keene Mill for that matter. The on ramp off Old Keene onto either 395 or 495 is like driving over a fucking cheese shredder.

I guess after giving up half our income for taxes, we "socialists" expect the gov. to take care of the fuckin roads. To boot they force us to get safety inspections for our vehicles? You know whats a safety hazard? A fucked up road with no warning signs.

You give half your income in taxes? What's wrong with you? Oh, wait, let me guess: you're sixteen and your parents make large coin, so you get taxed at their rate, plus they tax you for living there? Or can you just not count?
