How many valve stems did you collect?

    Don't collected the valve stems. That's property damage and it's illegal. Instead, buy a box of valve stem caps and a box of small BB's. Glue the BB's inside the caps and swap them out with the ones already on the nuisance car (tape the old ones to the tailgate so you aren't stealing), and go on about your day. It's gonna take them awhile to figure out why their tire keep deflating because nobody checks the caps, and it takes less than 30 seconds the bend down and "tie your shoe".

    I like the spirit of your comment.

    But slowly deflating tires can get dangerous for the people inside that vehicle and around.
    Cars with four flat tires not so much.

    I don't care for the property of assholes who don't care about the health and potentially lives of others.

    It won't be a slow deflation. That BB will press against the valve stem and that tire will be flat in a couple of minutes at most. I'm not suggesting you do it to all 4 tires either. Just one would do in almost every scenario.
