The Full Story
Ever since I could remember, I've had a deep passion for cars. Driving has always been more than just a way to get from point A to point B—it's a genuine love for the machines themselves. Each car I’ve owned has been special, and I’ve always taken great care in appreciating it. But with that love comes an awareness of when something’s wrong. One of my biggest fears is my car breaking down, and for me, a flat tire feels like the ultimate sign of distress.
Over the years, I've had my fair share of flat tires, and more often than not, they’ve been caused by nails or screws lodged in the tire. I never really thought much about it—just chalked it up as one of the risks of driving, assuming debris would always find its way onto the road.
That changed during a recent trip to my local tire shop. I was there for three hours, waiting while they worked on my car. As I listened to the reasons customers were there—almost all of them because of a screw or nail in their tire—it hit me: there has to be a better way to deal with the amount of metal debris littering the streets. This was a bigger problem than I had realized, and it sparked an idea.
That’s when **UNSCREWED** was born—a mission to clear the roads of hazardous metal debris that cause flat tires and breakdowns. We dug deep into research, identifying the sources of this debris and understanding the impact it has on drivers like us. What we found made it clear: there’s a real need for what we’re doing. And now, we’re dedicated to making our roads safer, one tire at a time.
