Question

A resident claims a pothole photo is “on Main Street.” The storefront skyline matches a county road two towns over. What should public works do before dispatching a crew?

Accepted Answer

Confirm location with reverse image and maps; do not dispatch from a caption when the picture geolocates elsewhere. — Captions lie more often than brick storefronts. If the skyline is two towns over, sending a crew to Main Street is a wasted truck. Reverse image and maps first, dispatch second.

Answer

Dispatch to Main Street because resident captions override imagery.

Answer

Fill every pothole on both roads to avoid checking the photo.

Answer

Ask the resident for a social-media password instead of mapping the skyline.
