Approximately 7 km outside the town of Claremorris there is a killer waiting on the road for you in the form of a tarmacadam pot-hole. Not only is there one, but a hole family of them just waiting to take your car and rip it to pieces.
The image on the left is taken approximately a half of a mile from the area where the killer pot-holes are lying in wait. I would be understanding that when the countries infrastructure is damaged the county council of that area would be making sure something is done, and if there is nothing being done at the time they would warn people of the danger. “Not So”
What your looking at here is first killer hole to meat you when you come around the bend on the N60. This stretch of road is 100km/ph and is the main link between Castlerea and Castlebar.
“Oh yea” says the man, I could avoid that no problem, Well what about this one. The image on the right is next pot-hole you meet, Oh look there is a full size bottle of Lucozade in it. That bottle measures Just under 10inches, now to me that hole looks about 5-7 times bigger than that bottle of Lucozade. So tell me again, could you avoid it now when you have no warning? Ohh hang on. . . . What i meant to say was could you avoid it now when you have no warning in the dark at 100km/ph?. .
Well?…..
I doubt it!. Look out people, seriously. I measured the depth of this pot-hole, and it clocks in at 4 inches, one further up the road not as wide but measures in at 6inches. 
This might not mean anything to the normal Joe-Soap but if you were to be driving a Ford Fiesta or a Renault Clio, 6inches is just under half the height of your wheels, At 100km/ph it is going to do MAJOR Damage, Fuel Lines Ripped out, Break Lines ripped off or even a good chance of just Killing you pure and simple.
Please. . . Stay safe.
