That, unfortunately, seems to often be the case. That said, I can say that as much as the construction back home causes traffic and aggravation... at least there IS construction, and road rebuilding. Here in upstate NY, I've come across potholes that have endeavored to eat my car... and to some extent, succeeded! I had a suspension, before I came here....
