More and more drivers are on a collision course with potholes in the wake of the series of atmospheric winter storms.
The latest victims began their day with a drive down U.S. Highway 101 in Redwood City, until a severe jolt quickly ruined the day.
"It was just, 'Boom, boom!' And then we were, like, 'We need to get over [to the shoulder],'" said driver Kyle Murray."We got over as safely as possible and we called Triple-A." Both tires on one side of his car were damaged by the pothole. One of his wheels had to be replaced. As many as 20 other drivers suffered a similar fate near the Woodside exit.But that is little comfort for Murray who is now out hundreds of dollars in repairs.
There is a process for drivers to try and collect damages from Caltrans. Drivers impacted submit their damage claims using this link:
