I rolled my car as I hit a pot hole, it ripped the front wheel off and made my car go up a bank and slide down the road on its roof and it truthfully gave me whiplash...took the council to court and got 4k!...they were questioned by the judge why the road from the councils own records was repaired every 6 months due to a sinking pot hole.
I had pics of ruler in the pit hole and the damage to my car, I also went through a no-win, no-fee solicitor..they'll sort it all for you.
Ps my barrister advised me that councils have money put-aside for things like this
the smokey old bus that sounds like a tractor...
