I visited South Korea and drove while I was there, they had loads of fake speed bumps where they were just painted on but had no actual bump. Definitely made you slow down if you didn’t know the area.
They also had lots of poles with flashing blue and red lights, so you thought there were cops ahead until you got close enough to realise it was just a pole.
The place is playing full-on psychic warfare on the roads.
Speed bump stickers make sense, but fake potholes are a terrible idea as they’ll get people to swerve around them to avoid wrecking their car. It sounds stupidly dangerous.
Imagine you thought that the 3rd one was another fake, but it was real one. Car got almost destroyed.
Anything to perpetuate our reliance on single occupancy vehicles!
I assure you, we also use 3D techniques in Canada.
With our freeze thaw cycle… I’m sure it’s much, much worse than Great Britain.
Same down here in New England. We have a bunch of granite boulders waiting to move and drop a big cavity too.
Digging fence post holes here is ridiculous. You get maybe 1 in 20 that doesn’t have a 20-80lb rock partly in the way. It’s why we hav so many miles of rock walls in the woods from 200+ years ago.

India: You guys are slowing down for potholes?I’ve lived in Canada my whole life, and I’ve never seen a road so well kept that it needed pothole stickers.
This has me wondering. Every country thinks they have the worst pot holes. Is there anywhere where the people are like “yes our roads are excellent actually”

Netherlands.
I have the experience (two decades ago, mind you) of driving my car all the way from Portugal to The Netherlands and you could tell when you crossed from Belgium to The Netherlands by the sudden massive improvement of the road.
Mind you, you could also tell when you crossed from France to Belgium by the sudden large fall in the quality of the road, though the difference wasn’t quite as shocking as in the Dutch side.
Wouldn’t say perfect, but compared to what’s south of us it defo feels that way
Don’t think i’ve seen a pothole here in my life.
Try driving in Canada in the winter. They’re in 4d at this point
The roads in Norway are better in winter because the snow plows scrape the snow and ice flat so its actually quite smooth.
Trust me. The potholes in Canada are real too.
I’ve literally never seen these stickers anywhere up here. We have organic potholes aplenty.
These would be such a nightmare for civil engineers. You’re just throwing down a random shape on the street, without any consideration for traffic accumulation.
🤣 Bullshit, drive through Quebec and you’ll see potholes the size of the grand canyon.
I certainly hope that’s a slight exaggeration.
The roads in Canada are literal trash compared to UK wtf
Look at Britain plagiarizing by stealing pictures taken in Lansing, MI.
Wonder how many idiots that weren’t paying attention have swerved to avoid them…

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen this same meme but with the countries changed.
Same images and everything.
and we here we have:
roads: optional
