very large pothole

by noddylyn

This is a tree lined very narrow country lane and with the sun out you could not see this large pothole.
My car went down it and there was a great thump, it knocked my automatic car out of gear, as I put the car back into Drive I knew that I had a tyre gone.
As the road was very narrow I had to find a place to stop where on comming traffic could pass.
Then to my horror when I got out of the car both nearside tyres had gone.
The hole is 2 metres long and 4cms deep. My husband came to rescue and measured it.
RAC man said both my alloy wheels are also damaged.
