No, MontanaLady, pot holes have been around as long as there have been roads, long before ol’ Henry. And I’m sure that some pot holes were there long before there was a road!
Some cities made the owners of first cars send someone ahead to warn others so they wouldn’t scare the horses. Probably plenty of rage if your team ran away because of the automobile.
LOL…
Whitecaraboa is right about “pot holes”. The name came from when potters would run out of clay and dig some up with at random to finish a job. They didn’t care where they got the clay from as long as it was sticky enough.
Henry Ford was responsible for the downfall of our society as it should have been. Right after him came the Wright Brothers and that put the icing on our society for sure.
Potholes cause road rage when the dingbat before you stops to avoid one, causing you to nearly rear end him..
SEE: Tire iron, golf clubs and knitting needles

Skyler should get credit for that one. It’s true.

I wonder how much “road rage” they could have at those speeds and with very little traffic in those days.

And here I thought potholes were when you dropped your doobie while driving your car. You learn something new every day.

LOL, Whatroughbeast! :-) If doobies are a habit, every day is a new learning experience.
