In that 3 years we have had 9 flat tires and all of them have had rocks in them and most of them we have had to get new tires because this road is so bad and they could not plug or patch them.my husband works for escavating company for 28 years and isince we have lived here they have never graded this road! I have sent so many complaints and have even called and talked with vdot and have never gotten anywhere.
