    Hi was driving to work today and ended up sitting behind this tractor going about 30 mph. Got to a straight bit of road and he pulled over a bit onto the side. So i thought ok ill overtake was going about 45 mph now and then he started to turn back into the middle of the road pushin me onto the side. My car was going about 45 onto the side of the road i must of gone over about 5 or 6 pot holes as my car was jumping alot was very pissed off. Should i be worried about my car it seemed ok after it but i'm concerned. thanks

    If it is driving fine and there is no clunking, bangs ect then you may well have had a lucky escape!! If your concerned about it have a good check over it just to make sure.

    Why???????? if theres no damage like lumps why care? i always hit pot holes on city roads...... i dont take it to a garage every time. to be fair its like saying you hit a fly at 120 should i take it to the garage? no noticable damage dont worry.

    Mate in a national survey of potholes Southampton where I come from came 2nd for the most potholes if I took it to a garage everytime I hit 1 i`d be even more skint than usual.
