Potholes have become a significant nuisance for drivers, particularly in the winter months, leading to billions in vehicle damage each year. In the UK, frustrated residents have resorted to creative measures to attract local council attention to potholes. One notable instance involved James Coxall from Cambridgeshire, who humorously illustrated a pothole with old clothes to draw attention and prompt faster repairs. This innovative approach not only lightened the mood but successfully garnered global recognition, shining a light on the persistent pothole issue in a unique way.
After complaints to the Carmarthenshire council were unsuccessful, they erected a humorous sign on the road, urging drivers to "remove their dentures," among other things.
James Coxall, a resident of Cambridgeshire (UK), came up with a creative approach to a large pothole dilemma on a local road.

Building an anchor that held some old clothes, he inserted his contraption into the pothole, making it look as if a person was upside-down in it.
