Claire Ranson said she and her husband were travelling on The Ridge last night (Wednesday, December 21) when their car hit the pothole.

They pulled over and took pictures of it and called the police and East Sussex Highways to report it.

Claire said she put a post up on Facebook after the incident, which she said attracted almost 90 comments from people saying the pothole had damaged the tyres or rims of their cars.
