Massive Pothole in Buffalo Swallows Pickup Truck
Buffalo, New York, is facing another brutal pothole season, and one particular pothole has captured the internet’s attention. A video shared on Facebook by South Elmwood Detail shows the dramatic moment a pickup truck plunged into a gaping pothole.
The unfortunate incident highlights the severity of the pothole problem in the region. The freeze-thaw cycle prevalent in the area has created ideal conditions for road damage. Roads that have been patched are also failing to hold up under stress from traffic and weather.
This situation is particularly striking. The video shows the pothole opening up just moments before the vehicle meets its fate.
While Buffalo experienced unseasonably warm temperatures reaching 75 degrees recently, the winter weather has already returned. This is typical, as March is known for its fluctuating temperatures before spring truly arrives in mid-April or May.
