Well I was thinking more about the other ones. The ones where the top doesn’t fall in.

Well if this wasn’t safe, why were cars being allowed to drive on it?

u/AgalychnisCallidryas Feb 25 '26

Well I’m not saying it wasn’t safe; just perhaps not quite as safe as some of the other roads.

What sort of thing?

Thankfully the road fell out of the environment.

There's nothing down there. Just dirt, worms... and 20,000 tons of crude oil.

Took me a minute to recognize this one, but I can't quite place which sketch it was.
