How Serious Is the Problem of Driving Over Potholes at High Speed?

[DelAddyson]

Driving over potholes at high speed can have the following impacts on a vehicle: 1. Impact on tires and rims: High-speed pothole encounters can easily cause tire bulging, deformation, or damage, and in severe cases, may even lead to tire blowouts or rim damage. 2. Impact on brake bearings: The instantaneous impact from high-speed pothole encounters may cause irreversible damage to the bearings within the braking system, leading to wheel looseness or regular abnormal noises during subsequent driving. 3. Impact on the vehicle body and electrical system: Severe vibrations can also cause varying degrees of deformation to the vehicle body, cracking or loosening of interior and exterior trims, and deformation of electronic circuit boards and connectors inside the vehicle, resulting in open circuits, poor connections, or short circuits.
