    My car's decal:

    That is perfect.

    I also saw a girl driving I think an older 2d Genesis the other day, she had a sticker that literally said "5hp sticker" and an arrow pointing to the exhaust that said "Prius repellent". Never seen those before haha.

    Generally speaking I think stickers are stupid, haven't had em on my car since high school, but sometimes I run across one that I like. There's a modded IS300 I've seen that has a "hybrid" sticker on the back near the exhaust, which I like. I've also seen some car (forget what it was) that had a sticker above the exhaust that said "Let me play you the song of my people"

    Both of those resonate with me because my car is really loud, and has a big V8 that burns lots of fuel for no purpose other than fun haha.

    Haha, those are pretty common within the Gencoupe community. The +5 hp stickers have been around for a while now but I'd never put one on any of my cars. One dude had a vinyl of Psy doing the Gangnam Style dance.

    Yeah, big enough to see from a mile away and drive around if you're paying any kind of attention. I drove by this recently, and somehow managed to not ruin my car on it.

    I just spent a week in Winnipeg (not by choice) and I used to bitch about Calgary roads until I drove there. We have it GOOD here.. driving down a road in the city and theres just a dirt road all of a sudden.. like the city just said "fuck it, this is good enough"... Grande Prairie and Winnipeg have the worst roads ive seen.
    I MAKE BALLER CARS MORE BALLER.....

    I get why they want the reports but geezus christ the sheer amount out there is insane and with no way to track which ones have been reported we just inundate 311 with reports. There was 2 massive ones on lower spring bank that they FINALLY fixed and they've been there awhile.

    Hahaha 5-6k in repairs for a suspension alignment and wheel repair.. That old ass X5 would probably be written off using his estimate.

    That really sucks but to call 911 over a pothole.. Come on..

    Anyone hit or almost hit that huge pot hole on memorial dr west just west of that ice cream place. I hit it tonight in my kia and was sure I was going to find my bumper somewhere on the side of the road. And I had my music at full volume, then I heard a loud clunk. Didn't stop to take a photo of it though....fuck these streets.

    For whatever reason I decided to stray from my usual route home yesterday, and found this fine outstanding gentleman on 37th.....

    Attachment 82103

    Two passenger side tires blown, and any further damage yet to be determined...

    We just left the light in a line of traffic, so didn’t see till the last second. Can’t imagine what damage would have happened if actually going the speed limit.

    What kind of fight am I in for with the city to pay up?

    Photgraph damage, location, record time that it happened. Get your repairs done, submit it to city claims. Continue to follow up until they send you a cheque. They will pay out of it wasn’t marked.

    I’ve been through the process and they do pay.

    Thanks. Only communication from them so far was to confirm the date of the incident.

    I drove by this weekend to check any action/ progress, and they have replaced the section of roadway, not just a fill.

    Did you submit photos of the damage, copies of invoices for repairs and the photos of the location and time of incident?

    I would phone the claims department and ask to speak with someone, confirm they received your claim and ask when you can expect a cheque in the mail.
