Officers say that, on Saturday, a truck drove into a large sinkhole on Kasson Road near Tracy after the driver ignored a "road closed" sign. The driver was cited for ignoring the sign.
Believe it or not, this is the third time someone has driven into the same sinkhole.

Kasson Road was on one of my routes home from work, a rural road that I took once or twice a week when I wasn't in the mood to deal with idiot drivers on Hwy 132.
At one time I had considered buying a house there at the San Joaquin River Club mentioned in the article. It sounds like an uppity neighborhood but in reality the houses weren't in all that great of shape, and it's located right next to the river which makes it prone to flooding every 5-6 years.
Matter of fact, when me and my ex were checking it out, she asked why all the houses had a distinct line about 3 feet off the ground. I pointed out to her those were high water marks from where it flooded the year before, then we left laughing.
