Damage caused by having to go onto verge

We are getting weekly wind turbine tower section movements on the A82 at present. The convoy has a police escort plus the usual support vehicles. The lorries with the towers take up two-thirds of the road width and the police are making motorists coming the other way pull far to their left onto the verge (if there is one!) and stop. What verges there are are very soggy with the snow melt plus rain and there's been quite a few who've bogged down. My friend was one of these last week - in fact, he went into a hidden hole and has had damage to front wheel and part of the sill. He's not getting a lot of joy from his insurance company but I can understand his annoyance as he was obeying police instructions. He knows the police were doing their job, rather he feels he should be getting something from the wind farm company.

Any ideas?
