If your car was damaged by debris on the motorway, you may be entitled to compensation from the highway authority responsible for maintaining the road. In the UK, this would typically be the Highways England or the Welsh Government.
To make a claim, you will need to gather the following evidence:
* Photos of the damage to your car
* A copy of your car insurance policy
* A copy of your driving license
* The date, time, and location of the incident
* The contact details of any witnesses
You should then contact the highway authority and submit a claim form. The claim form will ask for details of the incident and the damage to your car. You will also need to provide copies of the evidence listed above.
The highway authority will investigate your claim and will decide whether or not you are entitled to compensation. If you are entitled to compensation, the highway authority will pay for the cost of repairing your car.
It is important to note that there are some circumstances in which you may not be entitled to compensation. For example, if the damage to your car was caused by debris that was not on the motorway, or if you were driving recklessly, you may not be able to make a claim.
If you are unsure whether or not you are entitled to compensation, you should contact a solicitor.
