Tire and Vehicle Stability Matters
Tire blowouts and other tire defects are a common cause of auto accident injuries. Due to the improper design or manufacture of a tire, the tread can separate from the tire at highway speeds, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle and roll, resulting in catastrophic injuries or even fatalities.
While tires can fail for several reasons, one cause is where the structural integrity of the tire begins to deteriorate over time, a process known as thermo-oxidative degradation. This is the beginning of tire tread separation, which can diminish vehicle handling and safe control of the road. Tire manufacturers can minimize tread separations by incorporating a nylon overlay, or cap ply, around the steel belts in the manufacturing process.
Once a tread separation occurs, the vehicle's safety features must perform to protect its occupants. The proper design and installation of electronic stability control on a vehicle can allow the driver to maintain control of the vehicle and prevent a rollover accident. A well-designed occupant restraint system will also help minimize injuries. If you or a loved one has suffered an injury or death from a car accident due to a tire or vehicle defect, you should seek fair compensation for any damages suffered.
