“I cant imagine hitting the open hole with a car......major, major damage.”
In Managua, Nicaragua, on the 6 lane divided highway going to the airport, they had a open rectangular manhole that looked about 3 feet by 5 feet. It also looked 4+ feet deep.
Thankfully, it was in the center of the middle lane and I managed to straddle it the first time I saw it.
“REMEMBER THIS SPOT! REMEMBER THIS SPOT!”
Manhole cover, drinking water Manhole cover, dated 1997, Reparto San Juan, Managua. Compared to the older manhole covers here in Nicaragua, all of a sudden this one is in plastic and from Texas. Now that tells you something, I guess.
