Dang. More pictures and some news reports in the link.


TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — A northwest Ohio sinkhole has swallowed a car traveling down a street and briefly trapped the driver, who climbed out after authorities gave her a ladder.

Toledo police Sgt. Joe Heffernan says a water main break beneath the road may have caused the sinkhole Wednesday. The hole is estimated to be at least 10 feet deep.

Police say driver Pamela Knox didn't appear hurt but was shaken up and was taken to a hospital as a precaution.

Heffernan says Knox saw the vehicle in front of her start to slip into the hole but drive beyond it. He says Knox couldn't avoid it.

Officials used a crane to pull the car from the hole. Repairs to the road are expected to take days.

On a side note that's kind of cool to see the original brick road that was covered up.

That just shows you how cheap that municipality is.

On another side note you guys have no idea how close I came to replacing "suddenly" with "all of the sudden" in the thread title just to make everyone grind their teeth.

Heh, I actually read it as "all of the sudden".

union job security. If they actually fixed it right they would run out of work. These Union road workers up here are ridiculous. There's usually a crew and 1 or 2 actually working. The other 10 are fucking off or sitting down.

So you thought about it, and all of a sudden the idea came to you not to do it? It's crazy how suddenly you can change your mind.

On a side note, at least if the car caught fire, the water main break woulda put it out.

The pic looks fake. I'm not saying it is, it just looks that way.

I don't know what I would do if all of a sudden the road in front of me.. sank....

On a side note I have anti locking brakes so I will probably be okay!
