Default I hate the roads through Ft. Dix

Anyone that has driven the roads through Ft. Dix knows how rough/crappy they are. Well I noticed last week that a new pothole formed out of no where. This is the kind of pothole that you DO NOT want yourself to hit let alone your worst enemy. It it literally 6+ inches deep and 1 1/5 feet wide. It's that bad. I always make a mental note to avoid that like the plague. Well as of last night that from my am lunch break to this morning driving home there were 4 cars lined up on that side of the road varying distances from that pothole all with left front flat tires. A small compact of some kind, a early 2000 impala, a new ish navigator, and a neon. I feel really bad for those people. They need to repave that road in the WORST way.

worst thing about the roads at Dix is that small town you drive through to get to the back of the base where the speed limit drops from 45 to 25 and theres a speed trap almost every day. Got a ticket driving a rent a car mustang coming back from lunch with my boss and coworkers in the car. cop was a real ***** gave me a 50 seatbelt ticket and acted like he was doing me a favor>

Oh you have no idea. When it's mating season I can count 15-20 deer just driving to work from lunch at night. I also had one bounce off my vette so I am on red alert going through there at night.

I always have the radar on when I go through there. The cops always sit right before you enter ft. dix or right off in the big lot on the right(or left depending on which way you go). I got a warning for going 34 in a 30 through there. I know they absolutely hate it when you don't have a front plate.....ask me how I know

I was there for work at Range 1 last October. Yeah the deer are bad! I made it between a pack that was going ludicrous speed across the street and suprisingly didn't hit any
