However, those rains can pelt and pummel the roadways and Honolulu ranks among the worst in the nation for urban roadway conditions. If you and your automobile have fallen into one of this city's potholes, report the pothole so the city can schedule the fix. Then, make a repair reimbursement claim to the city.
