What are the safety hazards associated with aging vehicles?
1 Answers
The hazards of aging tires include: 1. Increased risk of tire blowouts. Tire aging is one of the common causes of blowouts. As tires age, their surfaces harden and are prone to developing small cracks, which increases the risk of blowouts and air leaks due to cracking. 2. Impact on vehicle performance. Aging tires directly affect the safety performance of the vehicle, such as braking distance and stability, making it extremely prone to safety accidents. Especially in snowy or rainy conditions, the compromised braking performance due to tire aging can easily lead to traffic accidents in adverse weather.
