surface of the pothole is a water table. when that water table rises, the water seeps up through any of the cracks or any obstructions in the surface and it comes up on the top. a san jose resident took her concerns to reddit and others chimed in about close calls and the danger of it. >> somebody hitting that right on, a motorcyclist in particular, it would be -- it would be a res if i for dacipe f they patch it up and it keeps breaking. i appreciate the efforts, it's clearly not a solution. >> caltrans says they are very aware of the problem. they have had to install ten pumps to direct water away to nearby creeks and rivers. caltrans says it is working on scheduling patchwork for this specific pothole, but in the meantime drivers should be aware
