The problem with that is if the tires have been flat for a while, the weight of the vehicle plus the wheel rims could actually sever the belts, making driving the car a really risky proposition (Joe Pags).
Having a tire completely deflated can damage the alloy too as they were never designed to have the full weight of the vehicle on the edges of them this can bend them out of round. In addition the tire itself can come off the sealing bead making it impossible to inflate again until lifted or towed to a shop to reseat that sealing bead. Plus the actual damages to the sidewall cords of the tire itself. Any one of these is a pecuniary loss and most certainly a substantial inconvenience to the owner. Both of which in Texas satisfy to the letter of the law criminal u. Do that after dark and things can go bad quickly with little civil recourse as Texas Castle doctrine in a separate statue indemnifies a citizen against civil action when they lawfully use the defence of property to include your home, business or vehicle by name in that statute.
