[QUOTE="ClassicBiker, post: 97087, member: 1632"] The problem is world wide. Here in Michigan we joke that we have two seasons, winter and construction. The annoying bit is, it is the same roads that keep getting repaired. No sooner is a road repair completed than they tear is up again. They powers that be keep telling us they need to raise taxes to do effective and long lasting repairs but the state coffers have a surplus. New businesses won't locate here because the infrastructure is such crap and businesses that are located here are leaving because the infrastructure is such crap. When the county executive tells residents to dial 911 (emergency response number) when you hit a pot hole and it breaks your wheel to drive the point home to the state government that the roads are terrible and the state responds that it is cheaper for the state to replace damaged wheels than repair roads, you know you have problems. On a lot of levels. It is a wonder that more people aren't killed. Steven [/QUOTE]
