I am not going to the barricades on this, Peter, but given that guttering is supposed to deal with rain, you would hope it would be pretty storm-proof.
It would be almost impossible to say whether or not it had been properly maintained but I would argue that guttering isn’t supposed to fall apart in nasty weather, therefore the ‘bad luck’ is the OC’s, not the car owner’s.
This is the kind of issue you wish was worth taking to NCAT (it isn’t) just to see what kind of bizarre and arcane decision they would make.
