Pothole - I had to swerve someone in the middle of the road and nearly crashed myself. Broke my wheel.

Reported via mobile in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 13:57, Thursday 6 March 2025

Sent to North Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 7235792.

This pothole is dangerous, it is deeper than my hand (I have photos) and very large. I had to swerve as someone was driving in the middle of the road and I nearly crashed myself. It has broke my wheel and I could have died. I had to get rescued as I had no jack, but luckily had a spare wheel.
