Beltway 8 - Needle Nose Pliers Sighting

I spotted this tool on the way back from a visit to my opthamologist.  I've had recurrent episodes of iritis.  It was midafternoon around 4:00 CST.  The needle nose pliers were lying on the inside shoulder next to the lane divider about two miles west of the Fort Bend Tollway exit on eastbound side of the road.

The pliers had blue plastic handle covers and appeared to be in good shape from my 60 MPH drive by observation. There was no opportunity to pick these up and since I have numerous pairs already there was no need to consider the option of stopping.
