Abstract
In some embodiments, a tire tread collection device is provided which may be coupled to any vehicle preferably having one or more tires. The device may include one or more vertical supports which may be coupled to a debris screen. The debris screen may have a first end, with a collection aperture, and a second end. The first end and collection aperture may be positioned behind and proximate to one or more tires of a vehicle. Preferably, the device may include a first vertical support and a second vertical support which may each be coupled to opposite sides of the collection aperture and which may also be coupled to an opposing side of the vehicle so that one or more tires are positioned approximately between the vertical supports. Tire debris thrown from the tires may enter the debris screen through the collection aperture of the first end and be retained therein between the first end and the second end.
