I had to stop at a friend's house on Saturday to pick something up. I saw a large pothole in front of their place, took a few minutes to snap a photo and report it to the city, and... it just got filled in.

Reported on Saturday, fixed on Monday.

I don't know how to convince more people to do this.

Fixing Potholes

Let's see how quickly a pothole gets filled in...

RasterWeb!
@rasterweb You may live in a city that's especially responsive to these kind of service requests. I don' think my city would fix a pothole even if 20 people called to complain

@MLE_online Oh yeah! Milwaukee is really good at it, which is more frustrating because I wish more people would report them.

I think the city has to deal with it in a certain amount of time as well. There was some story about automating the reporting with cameras on garbage trucks but someone pointed out it might put the city at risk if too many reports came in and they could not keep up.
