Friends Take Funny Pothole Photos To Draw Government’s Attention To Poor Road Conditions In Kaunas

ADVERTISEMENT

A creative and active group of friends (called Z999) decided to draw people’s attention to the deplorable condition of Lithuanian roads and road safety by creating a photo shoot around potholes in Kaunas.

The aim of this was to laugh at the absurdity of this situation and to draw our government’s attention to it so that they might take action and do potholes repair. Two professional photographers, Arturas Artiusenka and Eurika Balciute, attended to this photo shoot idea. Not only this was a great experience for us, but many Lithuanian magazines also became interested in the project and these cool photos as well.

None of these funny photos were made to offend our government; it was just a good-natured way to express Lithuanian citizens’ thoughts.

Let’s hope that the condition of our roads gets better next year!

Humour brings the best out of people and hopefully government sees this and take positive actions, not arresting them!

Why would the police arrest them? ) Lithuanian police is nice, we like them! P.S. Lithuanian roads are not poor, only Kaunas' roads suck...

This is proof our government needs to use tax money for real situations, not for more bars!

A very good way to protest. I loved the ones with the people brushing their teeth and doing their laundry. Also loved the romantic one.

Really funny. But come on, the whole photosession is around one single pathole taken from different sides.

I think all the action took place by one pothole :) You should have shooted at least a dozen. Anyways, the roads are a disaster there, agree

Who owns these photos? Did you get permission to use them? Why does the BBC credit Bored Panda, not the authors?
