I have never even had a vagina and I winced reading this very evocative combination of words.

Your city may have a "Municipal Service Request" form that can be filled out online.

I've used mine for potholes and tree trimming requests on my daily bike commute path.

Upon reading this sentence I clenched, which I imagine would make things worse.

I'm stealing this. It's like something out of Letterkenny

I don't want to be a twat but you don't pay road tax, and certainly not for ordinary road maintenance. The money for potholes on local roads comes out of general taxation. We are ALL paying to get fucked over by potholes. In fact what makes a bit of a bump in a car can completely fuck the front wheel of a bicycle and potentially chuck the cyclist over the bars. So you've not got it as bad as some.

I would hope that on a bike you could avoid it easier.

What do you think vehicle registration fees, additional fuel taxes, and in some states Highway Use Tax are?

In general, not nearly enough revenue to cover road maintenance. That user is correct, road maintenance is wildly expensive and at least in most of the USA use fees haven't kept pace with maintenance costs for many decades.

Our failing infrastructure is a symptom of desires to bomb brown people being chosen over making life better here.

Not road tax. It's a right hand drive car, so it's not in the US. Of the countries that drive on the left side of the road, the UK has a well known pot hole problem, so it's almost certainly from the UK, where there is no road tax, and pothole repairs come out of general taxation.

Not everyone lives in the US.

There's potholes in other places than the UK which is why people find this meme relatable.

What about singapore?

They really seem to be getting their potholes sorted: https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/transport/nearly-40-fewer-potholes-on-roads-over-last-four-years-lta-to-roll-out-new-road-maintenance-ideas

I mean because they have right hand driving and a road tax.

But not the potholes.

They get a lot from heavy rains.
