“92 potholes on my way to work” – What a normal day on South African roads looks like

This dual carriageway has essentially been reduced to a single, severely damaged lane where motorists from both directions have to dodge potholes as well as each other.

@TopAuto... are you really into all things driving as you claim or is it all just a bunch of BS?

Since when a dual lane road known as a dual carriageway? Does Delmas Rd section as shown on the map really have 4 lanes, as the dual carriageway shown below, that become just one usable lane?

Apparently there is a school dropoff involved somewhere

Not for long, potholes will never be tolerated where we govern.
