- 1. Paved
- 2. What is Paved? Paved is an app that allows users to navigate potholes, report potholes to users and the DOT, find safe driving routes, and file claims for vehicle damage.
- 3. Inspiration A news story that was asking readers to submit pictures of potholes to the newspaper so they can report to other users and the DOT.
- 4. Initial Research Pain Physical pain of hitting potholes Car repair bill Car part in middle of road Scared of traffic Toddler repeating my profanities Baby waking up Baby crying Husband nagging Almost hitting other cars trying to avoid Slowing traffic to go over slowly Not wanting to visit parents b.c of awful potholes on cross Bronx expressway Nice car feels pointless Fighting insurance Pleasure Avoiding a pothole Surprisingly no potholes on road Nicely paved roads Pothole repairs City paid for repairs Actions/behaviors Driving Swerving car Cursing profanities Yelling back at husband Cursing city Listening to music Trying to avoid traffic Passenger in car Navigating Avoiding other potholes Times/places In car Cross Bronx expressway Saw mill. Parkway Route 9 LIE Queens Bronx Brooklyn Hell’s Kitchen Jersey city Jersey turnpike Ct (no potholes!) Route 9a Driving son to school Driving to parents Driving to sisters Getting to 87
- 5. Interviews “Hitting any pothole is painful but its especially bad when its one that could have been avoided.” “You need to have fighter pilot reflexes in New York/New Jersey to avoid most potholes. Unfortunately as my boyfriend likes to point out I do not.” “I was driving in Istanbul last month and the roads there had virtually no potholes. And no highway in Turkey has potholes. They are comparable size cities and Istanbul arguably has less resources. If that city can manage, NY should be able to.” “If there were an internet option to report I would be more likely, assuming I knew where I was. I had to draw a map and let the city know exactly where it was to file my claim.”
- 6. Key Takeaways 1. No easy way to report potholes 2. No way of knowing when potholes are repaired 3. No warning, except for the occasional cone 4. No warnings on roads that are particularly hazardous 5. Filing claims is onerous
