Well the police are not there 24/7 to check tires.. you can try to go up.. just remember it is your responsibility if things go wrong. Quote:

heads up: there is a huge pothole northbound before you get on the pattullo bridge. it's big and deep enough that cars are starting to line the side of the road because it's blowing out tires/breaking wheels

for surrey? nothing: https://surrey.ca/city-government/7055.aspx Quote: POTHOLES & ROAD HAZARDS
I have damaged my vehicle in a pothole. What should I do first?
Do not continue to drive the vehicle if it is not operating properly. Contact your collision insurers at your earliest opportunity.
Should I notify Surrey of the pothole or road hazard?
Yes
Surrey works crew can attend the location and fix the problem.
Will Surrey pay for my vehicle damage?
In most cases - No
As a matter of policy, Surrey relies primarily on the traveling public to report problems with the roads and is not liable for damages sustained to vehicles in the absence of prior notice. City crews respond to repair potholes as quickly as possible once notified. |

Not sure if the information in the article is still current but it says that you can file a claim with the city to cover the damage.

2 in the left lane northbound. One in between lanes at midspan. Pretty sure my alignment got wrecked because it's vibrating at highway speeds now. Fun. Don't think this would qualify for any claims...?

Is it just me? or are the potholes esp bad this year? It seems like I'm seeing tons of them in a lot of places I drive.

There are a ton of potholes everywhere due to the ice/salt/plows. The one on oak St bridge is still there . I believe the claim process for these is it falls under comp coverage and if it's a known pothole (meaning more than 1 person called it in), the city can reimburse your deductible

+1 for mountain road conditions.
Which is the better drive and view, Cypress Bowl or Mt. Seymour?
Nobody I know has driven either recently so not sure what the road conditions are like.
Any insight helps, thanks!
