Are potholes getting dangerously bad on Australian roads or is it just me?

Victoria's road conditions are apparently deteriorating fast enough that a motorcyclist's death is reigniting the whole pothole debate. People are getting injured over this, so it's not just annoying - it's actually a safety issue now. Might be worth checking your local road conditions if you're commuting regularly.

Road maintenance funding has genuinely struggled across Australian states in recent years, so you're not imagining it - Victoria and other regions are dealing with real deterioration that affects safety, especially for motorcyclists and cyclists. Worth reporting potholes to your council when you spot them, since they do actually get fixed faster once they're on the radar.
