Oof… that sucks OP! So much construction going on around town. This happens all the time. I avoid alleys at all cost! I’ve already gone through six tires this year. And low profile tires are expensive 👀

If I ran a tire shop, I'd go around throwing nails and tacks on the road everywhere. I'd also lobby aggressively to reduce funds for fixing potholes

I don't think you'd need to find that. The city already doesn't fix them. There was a massive pothole/sinkhole in the alley behind 26th and N. Calvert that several people repair tickets in for. It took 3 of my neighbors and my husband popping tires (my husband popped 3 tires at once) on it for the city to come out and do anything.

Maybe the tire shops are already doing this

Every time a home repair van opens its doors, they jettison a spray of nails or speed screws. Do not park in the contractor's area of the Home Depot parking lot.

Shit falls off the shelves all the time driving on these Bmore streets. Sorry. I do my best to pick up after myself.

If we’re talking the Hargrove side there’s always so much trash in that alley, had to get a tire replaced last week.

I was wondering if garbage trucks could be outfitted with magnetic sweepers to remove nails, screws, etc., from alleys in Baltimore.

Hmmm...and those nails look perilously close to the unrepairable zone.

Those tires look like they're a wee bit expensive, too.

Nothing beats discovering a flat tire with a nail in it, only to discover that

  • The a-holes at the car place overtightened the lug nuts. Even to the point of the studs getting sheared off when you finally wrestle the lug nuts loose. Oh, yes, it can happen...
  • The wheel is kind of welded to the hub, necessitating a frantic search for someone who knows what they're doing with regards to tires, and can apply just the right kind of whack to loosen the consarned thing

"Ho's" brings to mind human reproduction, and in that vein the individuals who scatter vicious debris on the roadway need their breeding privileges revoked, or something surgically removed or tied off, etc.
