Wow that's a bummer! That's the kind of stuff that happens when I let the wifey drive one of my cars. Just bad luck or she's driving on the shoulder

The big one is for sure done in my opinion. The smaller one might be small enough that it didn't penetrate all the way through. If it did, it's still not a safe place to patch. Rule of thumb is that you can only patch on the flat part of the tire.

Good luck!

If you leave the small one- id suggest making sure you keep a plug kit and compressor in the car. I did the same thing and was fine for 5,000 miles...until I wasnt. Agree its not a great place to plug but it will get you off the road and to a shop.
