POTHOLES NOT JUST LOCAL PROBLEM, ROD STEWART FILLS IN HIS OWN POTHOLES
Sir Rod Stewart, concerned about what potholes might do to his luxury car, is taking matters into his own hands.
The rock ‘n’ roll legend, 77, took to the street near his Essex County, England home to shovel gravel into potholes “because no one can be bothered to do it.”
He’s been sharing his volunteer civic maintenance efforts on his Instagram account.
“People are bashing their cars up,” he said in a video earlier this week. “The other day, there was an ambulance with a burst tire. My Ferrari can’t go through here at all, so me and the boys thought we’d come do it ourselves.”
“We are filling in the holes ourselves while millions and millions of pounds are being spent on the M11,” he added, referencing a nearby highway.
Clad in a yellow safety vest, green sneakers and a tracksuit, he can be seen shovelling gravel out of the back of a truck with a bunch of his “mates.”
“Working for a living. Filling holes is good for the soul!” he captioned the videos.
To be fair, the road looks to be in terrible shape. Numerous potholes are connected by deep pools of water.
