Default Hit exploded water main

A few weeks ago I was driving home on a main road around 11 at night. I just washed my car that day and noticed a puddle in the lane ahead. I moved over in to the next lane to avoid the puddle and hit a huge bump and pretty much launched off of it. I lost control of the car briefly but was able to correct it. Turns out a water main exploded and warped the street causing a giant speed bump essentially. The road was also flooded which made it hard to see. Long story short I called the police and filed a report.

There was no visual damage to the car, but at the speed I was traveling and the impact of the bump I'm worried something was damaged. I can tell the car needs an alignment and ever since then, at idle, there is an obnoxious drone inside the car (any ideas?).

I plan to file a claim and should be able to get the damages covered by the DOT for the state. Just wondering what everyone's thoughts were or if anyone dealt with a similar situation.
