Many crash cases will result in some query relating to tyres, it may be that the major investigation of the case will centre around a tyre issue where an allegation or suspicion of some tyre related problem is raised.
Statistics internationally and locally have shown that the greatest percentage of tyre related issues raised are usually traced back to abuse of tyres such as overloading, previous repairs such as plugs, incorrect tyre pressure, improper vehicle maintenance and therefore inappropriate tyre wear and even other factors such as pothole damage or kerb strikes.
It is somewhat alarming that all too often, it appears that a driver will allege a “blow-out” or tyre failure of some sort being the cause, and thereby assuming that they will have an “escape route”.
