There was a relatively well publicised report on the state of Britain's
roads (or perhaps Scotland's roads?). My council came out worst in
Scotland. I could, if you wish supply pictures of a road with a
large pothole, with a collection of wheel trims around it.

Or, alternatively, the yellow marks that have been drawn on my
street marking what work needs done. The work hasn't been done,
and the marks have almost faded. They have, finally, started
doing some work just the other week.

The fact that the A80, M9, M8, A9, M90..... all have roadworks on them
(in several places, in most cases) is a sign that there has not been
enough maintenance done recently, though they are trying to catch up.
That's just trunk roads.
