Chicago refused to pay Bucktown woman when rusty light pole snapped, damaged her car – CBS2 (Chicago)

The car's owner said she called the Law Department for more information on the denial and was told if someone had called to report the rusty pole before it had snapped, the city would have paid her claim. CDOT said of the light pole that fell, "It was last inspected in 2017, at which time, inspectors noted no observed structural issues and a routine amount of rust."

They’re good with a 9 year old inspection?

Maybe she should have blamed global warming.
