Your Car Can be Tracked!

My god! I just checked! They must really want to know what I am up to because I have one on every tire. These guys are taking no chances.

PS I have never heard of the NADZ brand. I just thought of a clever advertising slogan for them which emphasizes their sportiness. GO NADZ!

Every automobile tire has a radio frequency antenna that looks something like this:



To prevent your vehicle from being tracked, you must break or cut off this antenna with whatever tool that will do it.

BB, surely only the unbalanced will believe that story!

[RayThom]

It's been proven that if you pound in a Hillman 1-3/4" galvanized roofing nail with a neoprene washer 2-5/8" above this tracking device it will immobilize the whole thing.

Measure carefully, otherwise you're just looking for trouble.

[MajGenl.Meade]

This one already is!

[Long Run]

This sounds familiar, story is probably a retread.

Now I am ashamed; when I was in high school I worked in a tire shop and unwittingly put on the tracking devices (most tires got 4) and antennas when I put new tires on; I laso recorded the tire serial numbners and sent them to the government (they said it was for excise tax, but that was probably ust bullshit). I wonder how many people were arrested and tortured because of the surveillance devices I attached.

LR--I never put retreads on cars, but I imagine they got the tracking devices/antennas too.

The government uses a balanced approach to tracking our whereabouts.

They are under a lot of pressure, but this privacy issue is where the rubber meets the road.

Let the air out, that'll show 'em!

It's interesting to note that this thread was started by our bicycle spokesman, who is aligned with our point of view.

I have to admit that ^^this^^ (or the Jeep in the image below) was the sort of thing I first thought of when I saw the title of this thread.

Quite the shock, I know. Just waiting to see his strut for starting all of this.

[RayThom]

Hissss!

[Joe Guy]

People are tired of being tracked by our government while they steer us in the wrong direction.

[MajGenl.Meade]

Not only that but in the UK and South Africa they are tyred too also.

Probably true in other places where English is spoke.

[Big RR]

Would that more appropriately be ill and tyred of it?

[RayThom]

Oh, spare me.

[Joe Guy]

Good idea. These jokes are getting flat.
