The silly thing is, they have known about this defect for 9 months, but it was
given a low priority. 9 months later it damages our car, and the council denies
they were aware the road was dangerous.

Is there really evidence that they *were* aware of a pothole for 9
months??

Yes, it was noted by a routine inspection on the 29th April 2009 and given a defect number 1948944.

So, when they now say that they were not aware the road was
dangerous (i.e., inspite of the pothole), they are in fact accusing
themselves of a failing safety assessment! Isn't this something they
can certainly be held responsible for?

I guess there's a difference between knowing something is wrong, and believing it is dangerous.

What's even more strange is that despite now knowing it has now damaged a car, the priority has not changed. It is still given a priority 3 repair! Though in fact I know it has since been repaired.

But: IANAL

No, me neither. But I'm going to send back a letter, probably with a link to a Sage worksheet showing the number of days since they first knew of it, and the number of days between the previous inspection and the damage to the car.
