With all due respect, I'm going to continue tagging our public officials, because @HouPublicWorks only responds to viral photos of 3 foot sinkholes. Another cyclist was hit on the Columbia Tap Trail crossing Alabama and is in the hospital. @VeronicaODavis @amarpmohite https://t.co/YiPQHZPy0F pic.twitter.com/nKx0FnHDcQ
