Let me guess: if you report a pothole to be fixed like they demand, exactly nothing will happen.
I think you are supposed to spray paint a penis around the pothole. I heard that worked some places.
They have a law against "pothole vigilantism" in New Orleans. There is also a "Pothole of the Day" segment on the local news. Given the corrupt government and they are also below sea level, you can imagine the pothole problem.
Actually you probably can't imagine the pothole problem. It's so bad it continues until there is a "whole road" hole problem.
the article makes some good points on why not though, also they offer anyone that wants to help to first ask them.
in the end its "their" property that you're trying to fix, with them responsible for it when you do it wrong
Not even that it's "their property," it's a public road used by hundreds, if not thousands of people regularly.
You need a licensed professional engineer to put their seal on that shit, and for a reason.
I guess pardon me for not trusting some uneducated, unlicensed rando with my public utility repairs 🙄
Just graffiti dicks around the holes instead
Planting flowers in them also appears to work. Really anything that brings them attention.
In Johannesburg the plants grow naturally.
Honestly, I don't hate this idea
