ProTip: you can easily deflate a car's tires by placing a small pebble in the valve cap before screwing it back on
I used to condone this, but people are stupid and can drive on the flat tire until it explodes, potentially putting other peoples lives at risk.
Not worth it for some petty revenge.
That's why you gotta do all four.
Can take hours to fully deflate, they could be on the Highway home by the time they go flat enough to be noticeable.
Hmmm you seem to know a little too much about this lol
Maybe I’ve had someone have this happen to them and the tire exploded and hurt an innocent bystander. It’s a large world.
The possibility is there if you think for more than a few seconds on the possible consequences of something.
Or we're just having a little fun ribbing on the internet?
Didnt need life advice lol but thanks
Lol never suggested anything
It was just a joking comment, duh
Why don't ya'll go do something better with your time
A lot of people aren’t joking when they comment stuff like that, they are dead serious, so sorry we thought you were doing what people actually do and didn’t specify you weren’t a terrible Human being.
Maybe you should be doing something better with your time than making stupid jokes online….?
Can you lot go back to Reddit? Thanks.
Why don’t you respond to the one actually being a trolling idiot instead of the one trying to stop people from killing each other….
Thank you for your service o7
I don't know what we'd do without you and stuff...
You might think that this is clearly a joke. That no one would actually do this. But you don't know how the people at the other keyboards are going to take it. Case in point.
I know people that had this happen to them. They got lucky.
Some people are disgusting.
Sorry they lack commonsense then
Yes… the vast majority of people lack common sense… hence why I had to make my comment condemning it…
People do actually do this you mook.
Must be one them them Beehaw users. /s
I guess you could leave a sticky note on driver's window that says something like "oopsie woopsie I noticed your tires are deflated, this car is unsafe to drive :(". Also you could just unscrew the valve core to make sure tires deflate quickly.
No no no, gotta be worse than that. Leave a note apologizing for the damage. There is no damage. They’ll be looking for hours
I like it. A note that says, "I thought I could squeeze in but there wasn't enough room. Sorry about the damage." Might make them reconsider doing this again.
I had a student do that. Just a post-it note that said “Sorry for the damage :(“. It was a kid that I wouldn’t have expected to play a prank like that, too: very quiet and reserved.
No, if you do all four insurance will cover it. Only do three.
This is a myth. You can google it if you don’t believe me
If you have comprehensive coverage, this will be covered. If the damage is of less value than your deductible, you won’t receive any money.
I've been told if you do all four insurance might be more apt to cover it, best to do one to three of them that way it might not be covered
That's for knifing. There's no physical damage here.
You're right. Better just pull the valve cores so they're obviously flat.
Direct action person right here... love it.
These people seem to forget the classic FAFO maxim, looks like they need to be reminded.
I keep a few screws in my car to prop up under the tires of people who park like this.
Good way to get shot by the owner
only in murica
You think this vehicle is being driven anywhere else?
i suppose less common in other countries but not non-existent
Better yet, with a valve core removal tool, you can flatten them all in seconds and make it harder to fix.
