    tires of vehicles get flat at saudi arabia street in better living paranaque, near a vulcanizing shop. some time ago, my brother rode a tricycle that got a flat tire in that area. my brother's officemate shared that a girl friend who passes through that street gets a flat tire very often. a few months ago, i noticed a broken umbrella lying just feet from the vulcanizing shop at saudi. i picked it up and took it off the street. the metal parts of an umbrella have a "v" cross-section, which can flatten a tire instantly. i experienced a similar trap in c5 years ago. (the area near the elevated u-turns is notorious; people say the nearby vulcanizing shops are behind it.) tonight, my father's car got a flat at saudi near the vulcanizing shop. i suggest you avoid that area, or use united nations street, which is parallel to saudi arabia street, whenever possible.

    residents in the area may install cctv pointed at the road ... hopefully it would catch the culprit (the vulcanizing peeps)
