wow, that is very shocking.  about 10-12 years ago i was going maybe 20-25
on a road that i drove several times a day.  it seems a water line burst and
took out part of the road.  i did not see the "ditch".  my car, a classic
MBZ ended up nose first in the ditch.  i had about 750$ of exhaust damage
and needed one new wheel.  that cost me about $220.  i followed the same
process.  after nearly a year of fighting the city, i finally gave up.
never saw a thin red cent.
