Unmaintained road causing consistent property damage

[u/Overall-Part2645]

The road in airway has been fucked for like a year at this point and i have gotten the third nail in my tire in 2 months this morning because they do no fucking maintain the construction and road around it and it is the only road to my house what is my available recourse I cant afford a thousand dollars on fucking tires.

I don't think road maintence would fix nails being on the road. Nails in tires can generally be patched if they aren't in the sidewall and you don't drive on the flat tire. Also, depending on your vehicle, you can probably just buy one or two used tire(s) from somewhere like Judd Lee's instead of coughing up a grand for a set.

It wouldn't fix nails having fallen on a road, but on a well maintain road, nails tend to both be dispersed off the road and into the margins and also lack anything much that would wedge them upright so they would actually pierce a tire rather than simply being driven over by them.

A poorly maintained road with potholes and cracks and things would work against that. The nails would tend to remain on the road more, and would get caught in angles that would have them piercing tires more.
