A659 - Otley Road

by spider59

20 Apr 2010

I could not avoid these potholes as a vehicle was coming in the opposite direction and I only saw them late as it was the evening. I have been left with a destroyed alloy wheel and need to replace the tyre. The wheel is a R16 and accept that the profile of my tyre is therefore low. But the condition of this road is unacceptable.

It is not inconceivable that having hit the last of the 2 pot holes which was the worst of the pair and definitely the one responsible for the damge, that I could have lost control and collided with the oncoming vehicle.

***I have pictures but cannot upload just yet due to their size. Once resolved I shall upload.***

Take a look at the "how to claim" section of the site - if the council has not been following the guidelines set out by them they are liable of this and you may have a chance of claiming back some of the costs experienced by you.
