Bad news: Thousands of drywall screws went flying from a truck driving on
northbound I-25 Wednesday and then punctured tires on more than 40 cars...

Good news: The driver stopped his truck and handed out business cards to
everyone who got a flat tire. He called in a tow truck and paid for all
repairs ..

A Simple story, but it made me feel good knowing that there are people
still willing to take responsibility for their actions and make amends.
I must have cost that poor bugger a small fortune, but he did the right
thing.
The Truckie gets my vote for just being a decent bloke.
