Potholes located on the streets around my town have more than once had me questioning my decision of having aftermarket wheels on my car. I’ve already had to get one of my wheels unbent and boy is that a pain in the ass. I don’t really blame my town as there everytime I’m out driving I see a crew of men working frantically to fill the pothole.
Enter ‘The Pothole Killer’ a truck outfitted with an asphalt spraying rig that is controlled by the driver with a joystick. As said in the above video, this truck makes filling potholes much more efficient and not to mention easier on the taxpayers pockets. Apparantly, in the D.C. district it costs the taxpayers $70 to fill just 1 pothole but with ‘The Pothole Killer’? $3.
