My Ride: A Car
Driving back from new jersey today, I was going to flushing. Drove thru gwb the n major deegan. Out of no where, BOOM! Then steering wheel was shaking like a mofo. I thought I blew the suspension. Hazards on, pulled over to the side, got one flat. I was like, phuck! Well, could be worse. Then I went to grab my spare and then saw the rear tire. Popped too! I am still on the side of the road. I'll let u guys know when I get home tonight....well, tomorrow morning. Gonna be a long night.

Thanks everyone! I am okay. Just got home. Oh, forgot to mention THANK GOD IT WASN'T MY BMW!!! It was my beater Audi I am getting rid of by next week. My BMW is sitting in its spot safe and sound.
Thanks to Stylezzza for stopping by since hew as kinda close to me from his work. I couldnt get the phucken wheel off. Spent 2 hours trying to get to it. Got the front off and put the spare tire on. Spare tire is FLAT TOO!! PHUCK!
Was gonna use Alex's spare from his Lexus but couldnt get the rear off. I had about 5 big slits and one big ass hole in the front tire. Wheel is also bent. Gave up, drove me to flushing to my girl's place to pick up my Scion.
I gotta wake up freakin early tomorrow, drive myself from Williamsburg to the Bronx, find some guy to remove my wheel, drive to a used tire place, find two tires, go to my shop, fix that freakin bend, mount the tires on. I'll take some pix of the crazy damage. 
My first post was from my fone when I was stuck on the side of the road feeling helpless. Thanks for everyone who asked if I needed help. I got like 4 SMS after a few minutes of posting!

I've been thinking that we need to unite - all the NYC drivers and sue the city for the roads. I mean, its practically public information that the "business" of building and maintaining the roads in our city is "locked" and that whoever is in charge of it, basically not only does shit job, but they pretty much are stealing our money - I can't even tell you myself how many times I see a road blocked off, a bunch of guys hanging out and no work being done on highways. I mean, there's no need to even go any further - everyone who lives here knows this, but for some reason no one wants to do shit against being robbed by our own friggin' gov't... grrrrr I hate bad roads and everything that makes them so - how come in Germany (where the climate is actually more adverse to road surfaces) they have perfect roads? I mean, for phuck's sake, we are supposed to be the "financial capital of the world" - instead, you take a drive on BQE or Major Deegan and this is what you get as bonus... I feel your pain, bro...
