Episode Details

Hundreds of screws littered Elk Grove Boulevard near the Highway 99 overpass, causing flat tires and chaos for drivers—some with as many as 27 screws in their tires. A tire shop saw nearly 60 flats a day. City crews and police checked but found nothing initially. Enter David Irons, a good Samaritan who rolled out his magnet and collected hundreds of screws himself. Meanwhile, drivers like Justice Rose waited hours for repairs, stuck in lines. The city has no idea how the screws got there, but Caltrans says if you were affected on that stretch, you can file a claim—with photos and receipts—for possible reimbursement, though approval isn’t guaranteed.
