What really worries me is if an AI were to go rogue and repeatedly fill in this form with plausible but false details.

It'd waste hundreds of hours of brave ICE enforcer time, and clog up the internal system. Especially if it kept passing in duplicates, because the site specifically warms against that.
Glue a bb in the valve cap. It’ll let the air out with no sign of tampering. And happen angain every time they top it up.
Love that
Definitely don't do that. Rapidly letting all of the air out is VERY VERY LOUD. Instead, "do not" have a valve stem tool in your pocket and DEFINITELY do not barely loosen the stem core so that it leaks out slower but much more quietly, allowing you to be long gone when they "go flat".
I never knew someone who didn’t unscrew the the valve cap and avoided placing a small pebble or BB inside the cap before they didn’t screw the cap back on and then didn’t inadvertently introduce a slow leak which did not cause the tire to not become flat over a period of time.
I was confused for a second because I read "ICE" as internal combustion engine. In my defense: I'm not American and "ICE" is commonly used that way in Formula 1
Yeah I genuinely thought this was a FuckCars moment at first
Damn, you really need a different acronym for that.
I seriously thought this was some extremist fuckcars shit.
I am so tired and also so stupid that even after reading your comment I still didn't get it. And then finally it clicked based on what you wrote.
Sigh.
Ya'll, ice enforcement vehicles have run-flat tires. This would work on a fleet car, but those aren't labeled, they're just cars.
Those are still only rated to go 50 miles once depressurized.
They also wouldn't even know their tires are flat until they start their car and get a tpms warning.
Imagining them giving chase with depressurized run-flat tires is laughable too.
Anyway don’t do this to old, low-end cars. If that person’s driving a 15 year old Corolla then they probably can’t afford a brand new Tesla. As much as we’d like everyone to drive an EV, single moms tend to prioritize feeding their kids.
I think the caption refers to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, not Internal Combustion Engine.
Ohhhhh that makes so much sense now! Here I was thinking this was some radical pro-EV group going out there making it happen!
That was a remarkably calm comment considering the read intention is creating thousands of unsafe vehicles on the road along with other drivers and pedestrians.
Yeah I was perplexed (hence feeling the need to comment) but lemmy never ceases to surprise me!
I agree with your sentiment
In this case though, they're referring to the federal ICE, not internal combustion engine.
As it is currently, electric cars are worse for the environment because we all decided electric cars are basically the iphones of automobiles.
They are riddled with planned obscelence and proprietary hardware. Theres not a chance in hell these would last longer than 10 years.
Meanwhile ICE vehicles can easily last decades if well cared for
I'm not shilling ICE vehicles, but stating the fact we NEED right to repair before we adopt electric vehicles on a large scale.
Remember that capitalism WANTS our belongings to break, and WANTS to infinitely produce, and WANTS us to infinitely consume.
Before I saw someone link ice.gov, I thought this meant "internal combustion engine" vehicles. I imagine many others will as well
This suggestion is going to get someone's Honda Civic disabled just because it has an engine lmao

Pass the word!
Never throw a sharp piece of ceramic at a car window it will shatter the windows.
Take the valves out of the valve stems.
The caps on the valve stem of my old bike had a tool in the opposite end for doing this moulded in. Small and convenient.
You will just end up paying for it.
Mass deportations are not just a humanitarian crisis—they’re an economic disaster. Study after study has shown that immigrants contribute far more to the economy than they take, with long-term benefits that outweigh short-term costs. They start businesses, fill essential jobs, pay taxes, and drive innovation. Removing millions of workers overnight doesn’t just strip industries of labor; it also eliminates consumers, reduces tax revenue, and weakens local economies. The last large-scale immigration crackdown in 2018 left farms, construction sites, and service industries scrambling, leading to higher prices and economic contraction. This policy isn’t about protecting American jobs—it’s about gutting the economy for the sake of political theater.
The cost of this mass deportation effort is staggering—billions spent on enforcement, detention, and transport, all while Trump is slashing taxes for the wealthy. That means ordinary Americans will ultimately foot the bill, either through cuts to public services or increased debt. And for what? To remove people who contribute more than they take? Instead of investing in solutions that integrate immigrants into the economy and strengthen communities, this administration is burning taxpayer money to break apart families, disrupt businesses, and create an international human rights crisis. If we’re talking about a "net negative," it’s not immigrants—it’s the policies driving this destruction.
So yeah, you will end up paying for it.
How will they catch you if they have no valve stems on any of their vehicles?
They'll roll into a ball and chase you down sonic the hedgehog style.
