Even though I use the highly puncture resistant Marathon Plus tires, I still try to avoid running over glass, but if I do, I stop and have a look to make sure I haven't picked up any shards. If I see any, I knock them off with a gloved hand or stick before they've had a chance to work their way in. This may be overkill, but it's a habit I picked up back in the 70's, before tires such as the Marathon Plus existed. Something's working because I very rarely have punctures.
