Some one don't like me

[tazdev]

coming home from work this afternoon I entered the top end of my road (gravel road) and around one of the corners only to have a tyre roll of the rim and send the car out of control. The car went sideways on the gravel over a small ditch (still sideways) through a small pine tree (still sideways) and came to a halt up against a concrete fence post.

damage to the car so far looks minor and I am fine.

The part where it gets a bit suspect is after dragging it out from its resting place, and putting on the space saver to get me home, I took it to get the tyres checked. The tyre that rolled off of the rim (right rear) had a metal rod (similar in size to a nail, but not a nail) INSIDE the tyre. The rear tyre on the otherside had an almost identical metal rod through that aswell.

So now I am concerned that someone is out to get me (seems too unlikely to get 2 almost identical punctures in both rear tyres)

trye off rim luckily there was no extra damage to the tyres so I don't have to buy new ones immediately (they all need replacing though)

side damage note the green sap left from the poor tree

covered in dust

the car only got back from getting fixed up about 2 weeks ago

Doesn't sound like a good situation to be in, my friend. Any clues? No psychotic jilted-lovers

I'd be EXTRA careful from now on.

Hope all resolves...

Nice car Btw.

That really sucks, taz. I hope you figure out exactly what's going on....

If it was on a public road, why assume it's directed at you? got a pic of the items that punctured your tyres?Any accident sucks,particularly when you are not to blame.Losing a tyre on a gravel road is a particularly nasty experience,but I'd be looking at all the options before calling it a deliberate act of sabotage.

If you're concerned that it might be deliberate Simon it may help to go to the Police and have a chat with them.

Glad to hear you're okay though.

Glad it wasn't your brakelines cut. If you find them, give them a kick in the sack for me too, I hate assholes like that.
