I just posted a blog about the other more serious advantages that these misunderstood road features provide. feel free to take a look at my post and leave your comments.

Does he still write the ‘Jugular Vein’ column for TOI?
My respect for our roads department has scaled new heights. They even thought of kids, amazing!

This piece reminds me of Jug Suraiya’s piece in TOI about potholes. I had responded to him with my litany of woes. My take on this issue is a bit different. I would rather say that there are pieces of road between potholes than the other way round. This simple change in perspective helped me bring down my BP levels. This is what I had to say to Jug after reading his article “Holey Grail”: Jug has hit the nail on the head (or the road, rather) .. There are way too many of these craters in Gurgaon.. I am perpetually bobbing up and down when I drive in Gurgaon, thanks largely to the wonderful work that the contractors do (or do not do, depends on how you look at it). The potholes are a blessing in disguise, we do not require a rocker for our kid.. We just take her out for a ride and she falls asleep !!

Detailed info, but I have to go to that damn yahoo to find the missed pieces. Thank you, anyway!
