The are paving the area around my house and did a shit job of cleaning up the road after they milled the asphalt, leaving rocks and chunks all over the place. They then dumped their tar/oil all over it. For about a week it was just as bad as a gravel road, even keeping my speed to maybe 10kph I now have a nice quarter size chip in my windshield since the crews are not cleaning their trucks or the road.

Am I screwed or can I get the city to foot the bill to fix it, its slightly spiderwebbed already.

Kelvin Grove, no so much the cost, maybe $40, but the time that it will take and just the fact they don't give a fuck.

Didn't you had your road paved a few years back on your ranch/estate?

The MD re-lays the road (it's one of those asphault/tar/rock mixes) every year or two .... and leaves a crap-tonne of debris that takes months before it's been kicked to the side of the road. Sucks, but what can you do short of taking a broom and spending a few days sweeping it off the road, lol :nut:
