Sods Law...

Worked a night shift last night and made the most of driving home at 5am on deserted roads, coulda drove 16 miles of Motorway or 25ish miles of empty B roads.
Conditions clear but road surface damp & I opted for B, enjoyed a good blast and the car is flying along like a go kart then 2 mile from home Whallop!!
Deep pot hole clipped on front left,
Feel tyre going down quicker than £20 whore in Amsterdam
Resort to using can of tyre gunk to get me home..

Sods Law is :
Looks like wheel might be Gubbed & Ive just sold my old alloys last week...

Isnt there a web site where they show you how to claim off the road authority???

Lucky it didnt have you off the road!!

Not good, sue the pants off the council or whoever.

Good luck with it.
