Beware of the Belt Parkway left lane. Between Verrazano bridge and Bay 8th exit.

We hit it hard. 2 flats, dash lite up like a Christmas tree. Driving with the stock wheels after we cracked my 20's a few days ago.

We pulled off the Bay 8th exit and there are 5 other cars with their hazard lights on. The car behind me cracked 2 wheels.

Filed a claim with the city and Geico. Getting the car checked out for repairs tomorrow. Hopefully its just the wheels and no suspension damage.

the issue is they patch them then in a week the hole is back deeper then ever. hopefully come spring they do major raod resurfacing. tear the shit up and lay down new road. if they did it on 295 after the throgs neck theres no reason they cant do it all over.but we all know it prolly wont happen because nyc making over a million a day in toll charges isnt enough money. I honeslty dont know how u nyc guys do it. Id be scared to driver anywhere because its big money cracking wheels and blowing tires

omg danny kenny that sucks! Id be fucking livid to say the least.. I dont even have a spare tire.. The M doesnt come with it....

I see them patching here and there too, problem is that there pushing it down with a shovel, and within 2 days or so.. all that ashphalt has been lifted back up and is all over the place.. These arent even good patches.. The city is having claims up the wazuu filed agains tthem for this shit, yet Lindsey Lohans problems are all over the front 2 biggest papers! This world and State is so fu%&ed up its not funny. Im having one of those days I swear.
