Fuming motorists have told how tyre-shredding potholes on a city street claimed five victims in the space of minutes.
One driver, Kyle Johnston, 23, spoke to Edinburgh Live when he was forced to pull over in Craigmillar after he burst a tyre while driving home from the shops on Tuesday night, January 3.
Not long after he had stopped in a parking space, he explained how four other cars joined him after being hit by the potholes on Craigmillar Castle Road. One driver was even left to pay for two burst tyres.
