    The potholes is on the far right lane, the turning lane,I was comming up on the street I had turn right on. I don't know how they drive up in Canada but here in USA we don't go across 3 lanes to turn on a street.

    Something similar happened on the 880 close to the Alameda exits recently. Girl comes limping onto base with both passenger side rims effed and tires flat. Happened to a few cars and ripped a muffler off the guy in front of her. They called the cops to come out since it happened to (she claimed 5 cars) and get this, cops cited her and the others for driving to fast for road conditions...

    She's filing a claim with caltrans but they said it could take up to a year for repayment. She ended up going with her insurance and paying the $500 deductible while waiting on the claim to go through.

    It was fuqed. They had been doing construction over the weekend and the far right lane had some type of metal expansion joint that wasn't level with the roadway.

    Think I have pics on my phone of her rims and tires.

    Anyway's good luck with the claim.

    I can see the curb, and I can see a solid white line, the majority of the pot hole is between solid white line, and curb. here, we don't drive on the shoulder.
