Default screw in tyre, advice?

I managed to get another screw in my tyre, only a month after the last one.
This is getting expensive.

It somehow went in diagonally and into the thick part of the tread not between the ridges.
I pulled it out and didn't lose pressure. Does this mean it didn't penetrate all the way through?
Is it safe to drive like this or is there a danger if the tyres heat up at 70mph that the incomplete hole will crack through the remaining thin rubber and deflate at high speed?
