Description
About 8 feet out from the sidewalk directly in the path of cars.
SIZE: About 2 feet by 2.5 feet, depth 8 inches at the worst spot.
Dangerous for cyclists -- catches tires and could lead to falls and serious injury. Cars sometimes swerve into oncoming traffic to try to avoid this deep pothole. Also very difficult for pedestrians crossing the street.
When pickup trucks hit the pothole, a lot of debris flies up and out of the truck beds onto the road.
