Tyre retailers licking their lips

Didn't the same thing happen on the same road with nails a while back

This is crazy!

I can't imagine the mess!

Far out... Especially today, it's been fairly windy. Crazy to see those shards can cause such damage! I would have thought they would be lying flat, since they're flat pieces.

They look like shredded pieces, so many would be curved

Plus the car in front would have sent them tumbling. These things are constantly moving I bet.
