  • Just followed 2 cars who both hit this hole resulting in both cars suffering puncture / broken wheels. There is also another large and very deep hole in the middle of the road just before this, so you now have to play chicken and decide if you want to smash your car, or be smashed into by oncoming traffic to avoid these.
