Man there's a big one on yonge going south just after St. Germain (about 10m). It began as a repair job across the 2 lanes but turned into a gaping crevas on the curb lane.
It is right along the dotted line in the curb lane, about 2 ft wide and about 5 inchrs deep. I hit it going 20km..survived on 18's. Take care.

Also along Leslie between Lawrence and York Mills, on both directions. Drive carefully guys

From what I collect, "McDouglas" used to drive a 320 with "special chip", can accelerate to 190 in a flash, then he sold it to another guy and got himself a bike for the summer. He loves to drive way over the speed limit when he goes up north, flies by the OPP, couldn't care less about getting pulled over. Also, he claimed he's doing all these to do a research on "forum's behaviour".

These might not really be potholes, but driving south on Spadina from Dundas St is bad when crossing the main intersections. There's a couple potholes and deep ditches generally where the street car tracks are. These tracks are the ones that run east/west.
The grading is soo bad along that area that it feels like something bad happened to your car Just watch out when crossing those streets It will make your eyes go  |

Driving eastbound on Hwy 403 to the end where it splits to 401 E express and 401 E collectors (mississauga). There is a MASSIVE pothole right around the bend. Size of an 18" tire and about 1" deep. The worst pothole I ever hit going at 100kph.
I was lucky that there was no damage to my runflat tires. I am hoping they repair that as it is very dangerous. I believe it is towards the right side in the right lane. I don't think a 19" rim can survive that at those speeds I have my 16" stocks so I think I got lucky there. |
