I experienced this spot first hand on the 19th as well. Going fairly slow, road decent, then skating rink. I was working like heck trying to slow down, but nuthin. I turned into a curling rock, just slowly rotating right no matter what I did. Barely missed the yield sign as I drifted into 52nd, fortunately nobody coming. Went by the next morning and 2 trees and the yield sign had been knocked down.

I suppose if we see a bad spot like that 311 is the best bet to get some action from city crews?
