No major damage was done, just the blown out tire. The
tire place ground the rim back semi smooth for free and it
is not nearly as noticable.
I did talk to the contractor and his attitude was tough
luck...watch out next time. After talking to a couple of
cops, I have learned I have no case, so I guess I'll just
have to burn the guy's house....I mean eat the tire cost.
Just kidding about the burning thing. :)

You didn't say if you sustained any damage. If you
did, you might
approach the contractor and ask for reimbursement, if
he's a stand up guy he should take care of it, or his
insurance should. Or you could wrap a note around the
rock and leave it on the front seat of his vehicle, if
there's one there. Opening the door is optional...
Road hazards are just that...just a few months ago I
was following
my wife on her nice shiny '40 Indian scout just after
dark when she hit a softball sized rock in the road from
someone's driveway. Lots of sparks and tank slapping, to
her credit she kept it up but had to change her panties.
Suprisingly there was no damage, we kept going.

 My question is, do I have a legitimate negligence
complaint against the contractor? I feel like it was
totally not my fault for hitting the rock and that the
contractor was negligent in the maintenance of the fence
to proper standards. Would like to hear some opinions
and see if anyone else has had a similar experience.
