Pot Holes

[S800VXR]

Is it just around Andover or are the roads in a st state at the moment!! If I had the Ro Id have broken a few rims by now. WTF do I pay so much road tax for, I dont see carbon reduction policys helping fill the bloody holes!

i am about to make a claim against glocestershire council after a hole the entire width of the road appeared after a bend on a NSL it was soo deep and wide there is no chance it appeared overnight. Hope I still have it on camera. Alignments a bit out as a result and had a deflated rear tyre I need to check the alloy isnt buckled.

Road Tax money hasn't been set aside for roads for over 50 years now, sadly.

Worth a go.............

feel anal about reporting it but done it, also uploaded video of the hitting of the pothole. Caused over 2g in z axis which feels like having your arse paddled by an elephant. Not pleasant. How do I claim for the damage? The rear tyre deflated, need to check the wheels for buckling and the tracking now feels ever so slightly out (to the point I know its out)

I hit a pothole yesterday on the M6 at very high speed in my van. I was glad I was not in the ro as I think it would have totaled my wheel. a few hundered yards up the road two cars were changing wheels. I did report it

Its not just the potholes themselves. The roads are covered with small stones constantly been thrown up from the road surface as it breaks up.

stone chips... windscreens ..... its like dodge the damage out there !!!

hmm just tried it and you are right, comes up with some junk, so I refreshed the page seems to work if I do that

Expect a lot more. Can't see money being spent on repairing them any time soon.
