Heading towards bhead, came around the left-hander, into a pot-hole, that thinks its the grand canyon!!!!!

app. 18ft x 5ft

Beware.

It has seen one of my RH 17" rims off.....
Letter demanding compo has been sent off to the council

paul

take a photo bud, sneaky council will get it fixed and say it was never like what you say it was.

You sure it wasn't someones garage ??

Thats some god dam hole....

If it's the one I think you are on about... it's been there for fookin weeks now, actually probably a couple of months now, and the council know about it because they had a sign up at one point saying damaged road ahead!!!

The council/government don't give a shit about the motorist... as Sanchez said in the other thread, they keep making more and more fuel tax, yet they are allowed to get away with this shit!!!!!

I ran down there two dinner times a week for the past 8 years from 1999-2007 and it's been fooked since then!

and is it true that these things are a money box for the local authority

ouch

lol, that is why we burrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrn them

thats naughty

isn't it bbq time again soon!!!!!

as mentioned, get some pictures before they fix it or get some white lines around it; once the white lines are around it then you cant claim.

they will also argue that they cant be reasonably expected to fix every pot hole as they cant be everywhere at the same time.

i went down this route, you need to ask to see their inspection records for the last 5 years (i think) for that road, and if there has been a sign up there before then that is grounds for claiming their negligence.

its difficult to get compo out of the council - i would also go and get the buckled/damaged alloy checked out by an independent garage and a damage report done.
