There's a cable actuated bell for you. It's pretty interesting actually.

You'd have had me with you on most other cable op'd devices (H2O balloon launcher, silly string emitters....) but nails are like landmines, in-discriminant and potentially VERY dangerous....

Please don't do this. Even if you flat all (four) tires of your target, how much collateral damage would you cause? If your area is anything like here, the nails would remain for months and would probably damage hundreds of tires and possibly cause accidents.
Again. Don't do this.

Only a stupid kid would dump nails on the road to flatten vehicle tires. There really is no point in it.
