Now if someone were to park in the bike lane illegally...without actually damaging their tires...they could be inconvenienced...if you had a valve stem tool...by letting the air out of their tires...by removing the valve stem and tossing it away...if you did two tires, they wouldn't have enough spares to go around...and they would have to call for assistance...just a thought...
