Thumbs down I-280 south, right after 101 going towards Milpitas

WTF is with the f**king holes in the freeway!! God that section of 280 is horrible and it's been like that for the past 2-3 days. If you're going to dig holes in the freeway - make sure you can re-pave them that same day. Hitting that at freeway speeds is like running into a curb straight on!!

Sorry I had to vent since I have to go through there every day because of my commute. I think I need a new alignment now

yeah i've been moaning about illy these days too! it's even worse when you have jic coilovers and r-compound tires... and you're only about 3-4 inches from the ground.that for a long time. also 87 northbound is awful hilly these days!

on the other hand, if you lived somewhere where they have to re-pave every year due to snow, we probably wouldn't complain as much.

Good friggin' question. Seems like they are always doing something with no end result!

I drove it last night with 3 idiots in front of me going about 25 MPH. Made me angry, but I hit the bumps gently.

The only part I hated was leaving the area... stupid tires threw pebbles at my windshield.
