Driving through L.A. sucks

Had to drive through L.A. on the 5 North and South yesterday and let me tell you, that freeway just plain blows. Especially in my RX-8. Soo bumpy, jarring, and pot-hole ridden. Where the hell does our tax money go?

our highway system is a way to create jobs, not roads.

I hate LA freeways. Too much traffic, and headaches. One of the main reasons keeping me from moving down there.

i've lived in la my whole life and i can't remember once ever seeing a pothole on the freeway. maybe on the divider or in a construction zone, but never just in the middle where you can actually run one over.

The potholes begin as soon as you hit LA county.
