Dangerous in the wet. Also dangerous if you see such bad roads on steep mountain descents wet or dry, unless you have wide tires.
I have once caught my front wheel between a small gap in the badly repaired road section in a fast descent. Nearly fell but got things under control. Scariest thing. The reason I avoid going faster than 35 mph on descents anymore. It's easier / safer to swerve around bad stuff on the road if slower.
