The RAC has again joined the watch group Street Repairs to highlight the worst potholes today 15 January.
Just as last year, the motoring organisation has put a free downloadable app on its website for drivers to record and publish locations of the worst holes.
This enables motorists, motorcyclists, cyclists and other road users to instantly report street defects direct to the responsible local authority or the responsible agency with accurate location, details and even photographs.
RAC spokesperson Simon Williams said, “Potholes have been a blight on driving in the UK for far too long, and the RAC is pleased to support National Pothole Day and the efforts of StreetRepairs to draw further attention to this important issue.
“Despite promises of further cash to help fix the problem, motorists still suffer from many, many miles of poorly surfaced roads.
“Our latest Report on Motoring highlighted that motorists are growing increasingly concerned about the state of the roads, with 41% of those surveyed in 2014 telling us it is a major issue.
“We’d encourage motorists to look at the state of their roads and get online on National Pothole Day to let their local authorities know which really need their attention this winter.”
To report a pothole, motorists can visit the RAC website to get the app for their mobile phone or tablet.
