I was driving down the road one day with a friend in the passenger seat , I jam on the brakes, stop safely and toss it in reverse and back up on the shoulder a ways , then hop put grab a pair of channel locks line mans plyers and get back in.
he asks how did you even see that at 55
I don't know but I do , the hard part is telling if they are broken or not before getting out , you have to take the risk that it is junk every once in a while.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

See there it pays to pay attention to detail. Lol Not the first time I’ve seen this at a place I park to waste time before going to my life sucking job. I’m up about 10 bucks over the years here. Lol Shiny flag pole nearby??

Used to catch snappers in the field waterways up in Amish land. Was very common to find beer under those bridges.

My last good find was a brand new pair of bolt cutters.

I still have an 18 inch 1/2 drive ratchet I found in a road side park back in about 1989. If I break a good ratchet or even a "good" breaker bar it gets called back up and hasn't let me down yet. I've added some long cheaters to stand on and keep thinkin I will do it in but not yet.

Was going somewhere with my dad once and on the way out of town I saw some tools laying in a ditch. Told dad if they were still there when we came back by that I wanted to get 'em.
Coming back into town later I saw them still laying there. So dad pulled over and I grabbed 'em.
Large cheapo flat blade screwdriver and a 12" Proto crescent wrench.
I don't know what I did with the screwdriver but I still have the Proto.
