Crews are busier than ever repairing potholes around the Bay Area. So far this year, they’ve worked on 14,700 of them. Caltrans admits it’s a constant effort to keep up with the damage caused by all the recent storms. The potholes put drivers at risk and can damage cars. Last year, a group in Vallejo fixed some on their own. The same thing happened in Oakland in 2019, but officials say that’s illegal. That didn’t stop former governor Arnold Schwarzenegger who posted a video of himself repairing a pothole in Los Angeles. However, the city says that it wasn’t a pothole, it was actually a service trench being used by a utility company.
