Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Ohio

Is the county responsible for damages if the road isnt wide enough
I had an accident on a township road that wasnt wide enough for a concrete truck and a regular pickup truck,also had ice buildup with no gravel for safety. Plus the concrete truck driver said he was late for another delivery so he was taking a back way into town witch led him to a road with a no thru trucks sign. I received the ticket and pleaded no contest. The road is only 161/2 - 17' wide just enough for 2 passenger vehichles by gritting your teeth. I dont think a CDL driver had any business on, he used rt39 to get there he should had went back the same way. Please tell me what you think do I have a case against the County for not taking care of these roads?

Sueing the county is almost impossible. Sueing the concrete truck driver is something that you can do.

What are your damages?
