They have a law against "pothole vigilantism" in New Orleans. There is also a "Pothole of the Day" segment on the local news. Given the corrupt government and they are also below sea level, you can imagine the pothole problem.

Actually you probably can't imagine the pothole problem. It's so bad it continues until there is a "whole road" hole problem.
