A hose guide chock and method is disclosed in combination with a motor vehicle for preventing a hose (11, 11a) from being caught in a nip (16) between a tire (18) and ground (22). A cylindrical wedge (B) cut with an oblique rim (32) at approximately 38 degrees provides a tight fit against tire tread surface (18) so that an entrance space leading to nip (16) is closed as well as any nip between wedge body (B) and tire (18). A low body portion (12) is cut to define band (24) which strengthens the wedge (B) against accidental rollover and also provides wedging of the cylindrical body sufficiently to hold the wedge in place while the hose may be pulled both ways over the smooth outer cylindrical wall (28).
