[DMCForum] tyres revisited



Okay, my car got me...I just had to respond last week to the flat tyre
thread....While doing the final cleaning up under the car and double
checking my coolant leak which I think is now fixed I happened to look
over at my passenger rear tyre. Right in the center of the tyre tread was
the head of a screw. I figured that it was just caught in the tread since
I have done so much work and moved the car so much in the garage. I got a
Phillips screw driver and slowly unscrewed it. It didn't take long for the
familiar hisssss of air (Insert Damian music here) .....So my car got me
back for joking about tyres. I promise never to do it again :-) I will fix
the tyre easy enough but let this be a lesson to owners out there to be
careful what you say (or write) because your car is listening! I have also
heard knocking on wood has no effect on this phenomenon.

Anyone out there know the physics of what makes a screw lying on it's side
in your garage suddenly stand on its head at the instant a tyre crosses
it's path? :-) Dave???
