I just learned about the Tyre Extinguishers. They use lentils to depress the pin on the valve cap of an SUV's tyre, so that the tyre deflates without getting damaged. It's super effective and it's not a crime. They are called the Tyre Extinguishers.

In the worst case they don't notice and lose control on the highway and die. I'm pretty sure that's illegal. This is hardly different from suggesting to cut their brake lines.

Wire cutters are also not illegal

Neither are hammers but hitting someone in the head with one is.

I didn't think my comment needed am explanation, but thanks for providing one.
