I am a former member of Cambridgeshire Constabulary. I too had to hit this pothole yesterday as I was unable to tale avoiding action. To have done so would have caused an accident. This needs to be made a priority as it potentially could unseat a motorcyclist or cause accident.

I have been driving through the tunnel going south bound with my 13months baby and family and had no chance to avoid this huge pothole. I was on the right lane with double white line seerating myself from the left lane and cars. This as a result has damaged my left anti roll bar and bushing and engine/gearbox mounts to misalign. My car now has a creaking due to the impact of the car. I want to be compensated for the damages as i heavily rely upon my car for work.
