Claiming is never as straight forward as should be, worth checking on net making sure you cover all the necessary parts on the initial letter

I would contact your local highways dept, they should point you in the right direction for claims.

Trouble is, it needs to have been reported first, otherwise they are not negligent if they dont know about it. Ask me how i know....

Driving back frpm the Brabon Hill Climb last year on the A683 from Sedburgh towards Kirby Stephen it was like doing an autotest such were the number
of holes. Problem was that there was an RS Owners Club road run and some of those guys coming the other way were not slackening off giving you little
room for manouvre.

How long does it take to get that big? Also does this work on other areas like if they don't tell me I have to pay council tax then I'm
not breaking the law in not doing so?

Found out its under Stirlingshires district and a claim form is on its way and could take upto 8 weeks to make a decision!
