The radio legend, who drives a Tesla Model 3, slammed the state of the country’s roads.

The 81-year-old fumed: “Does anyone know when someone in authority is going to do something about the dreadful state of our roads?

“Thanks to potholes I’m now on my third tyre.”

He added: “It’s all quite ridiculous.

“How much longer are we going to have to wait before someone somewhere takes any notice?”

Local, Derrick Brown fumed: “There is always enough tarmac for speed bumps, never enough to fill potholes.”

Richard Earle added: “Our cars have to be roadworthy and pay road taxes but roads are not car worthy.”

Anne Waters said: “It’s a total disgrace, this country is going to the dogs.

“I blame all the lack of finance on privatisation and outsourcing, before those days things were much better.”
