  • A vehicle's low tire pressure can be especially dangerous in March, or pothole season, said AAA's Robert Sinclair.

The article from Newsday discusses the increasing problem of potholes on Long Island, exacerbated by the region's freeze-thaw cycles which cause road surfaces to crack and deteriorate. These potholes pose significant risks to drivers, including tire damage, vehicle suspension issues, and potential accidents. The cost of repairing pothole-related vehicle damage can be substantial, with tire replacements alone often costing hundreds of dollars. Local governments are attempting to address the issue through temporary fixes like cold patching, but these are not long-lasting solutions. The article highlights the frustration among residents due to the recurring nature of the problem, the financial burden it places on them, and calls for more permanent road maintenance strategies to mitigate the issue.
