I was on my way home today on a road that was parrllel to an interstate, all of a sudden...WHAM!!!! I look back and there is a huge piece of asphalt about the size of two footballs. They had been working on the road earlier in the week. Then I hear this spatting noise. So I drive two more miles home and there is a huge *** whole in one of my headers! And the alternator is shaking like crazy. So I am taking my moms car over there and file a police report. Will the DOT pay for this?

 

probably not. they will say you should have seen it coming. its just the way they are. that sucks though. good luck getting it fixed.

 

Usually you have to stop right after it happens and file the report so it can be investigated then and there.
