Ah yes, forfeiture of their assets. This sounds familiar somehow...
Those tires are criminals.
They should have complied with the road.
They were "radial" profiling them!
Tires can't be criminals, they are inanimate objects. Only humans and some higher intelligent animals can break the law.
Bet your lots of fun at parties , 😉.
Lol if you only knew.
You'd think that but in the American legal system corporations are civil rights bearing people, you're not related to your parents unless you maintain the same address, and objects can be suspected and tried for criminal acts and assumed guilty until proven otherwise.

My point is they are super citizens, with more rights and privileges and less things binding them.
