Now that it's too cold (for me) to detect, it's officially POTHOLE Season here in Michigan. There is no special permit or license required to participate, so any and all, old or young drivers can enjoy the fun!
In-case you've never heard what this is, a pothole is a misunderstood phenomenon. Potholes form overnight and appear randomly on road surfaces this time of year. They resemble craters on the Moon's surface, but luckily, most of them aren't that deep. Scientists have studied the phenomenon for centuries and no one has been able to explain how they form and where did the material go that was removed from the road's surface! Potholes are not limited to just gravel roads. Asphalt roads are just as susceptible and quite often, the recently born asphalt pothole has been known to "take no prisoners" since they are quite difficult to observe while traveling at high speed.
I believe this short video about potholes was posted here on T-Net before, but I felt it necessary to re-post it to make any new T-Net members fully aware. Enjoy the video and make sure all family members are alerted.
