Hands down St. Martin Rd. Between Lafayette and St. Martinville.
1 trip down that disaster and I need new shocks, tires and a front end alignment. I literally hit a pot hole and almost got thrown in the roadside bayou.

Close second is Church Point Hwy south of Branch.

Edited to remove NOLA.

Gotta be New Orleans roads. I remember years ago was delivering some furniture, I think down general mouton.

We had a whole hutch and buffet strapped in, all sorts of furniture.


I think when we got to the destination, we open up the back and it’s nothing but broken wood and glass.

We had bounced in and out of potholes so damn much…god that was a trip.

As a dumbass teenager we use to do 100 down that road on our way to Bandstand in St. Martinville. Hitting potholes at that speed make you feel like you took a body shot from Mike Tyson.

Just say “I haven’t driven in New Orleans” it’d be shorter

OP said potholes not sink holes You can see Earth's mantle in spots off of Royal and Canal.

I was driving river road in a new Orleans the other day. If I weren’t paying attention I would’ve destroyed my car. These potholes were several feet deep and all over

St. Bernard Ave in NOLA is pretty terrible

Some of the streets in Lakeview were torn up when I lived there years ago

There are some roads in uptown New Orleans that look like a third-world country. Honestly too many to name.
