Driver plunges into giant hole traveling through construction zone

A driver in Detroit ignored road construction signs and probably wishes he hadn’t.

The signs were there for a reason, according to WXYZ-TV.

A water main break in the Detroit enclave of Hamtramck caused a massive hole in the road, and the errant driver drove right into it.

Crews were in the process of fixing the break when the accident happened, WXYZ reported.

The driver was cited for reckless driving.
