101 Southbound, right after the 85 flyover, middle lane... WATCH OUT! Half the dang lane was sunk until about a month ago.

Some of it's been filled in, but it'll still hurt pretty bad if you go over it.

I hit that at about 100mph last night....err..err..errrr. damn thing.

it's been there a LONG time. But it has gotten much worse since the last time I drove it. Stupid audi thought he could beat me around the corner going wide.

And it just happens to be in the PERFECT spot for running squarely over it with your left front tire.
I just saw a caltrans person filling this hole this morning.

How about Ashby/13 heading towards the "freeway" part of 13 that dumps you on to 580 in Berkeley?

The entire road is like an obstacle course.

I used 13 to 580 to 238 and get on to 880 to head home to San Jose so I can bypass the *******s near Oakland.
