At what tire pressure level should a car not be driven?
1 Answers
A car should not be driven when the tire pressure is below 1.0 bar, and the vehicle will issue a warning if the tire pressure falls below 1.5 bar. Hazards of excessively high or low tire pressure: 1. Shortened tire lifespan; 2. Increased friction coefficient with the road surface; 3. Creates unsafe driving conditions by making the vehicle prone to drifting; 4. Increased movement in various parts of the tire, leading to abnormal heat generation due to excessive rolling; 5. Multiplied friction between the tire and the ground, causing a sharp rise in tire temperature, softening of the tire, and a rapid decrease in strength; 6. Risk of tire blowout; 7. Accelerated rubber aging, broken cords, and faster wear on the tire shoulders.
