Very sad, but why does tyre burst take place? Bad, aged, cracked and worn out tyres lead to such instances. Tyre pressure gauge should be made mandatory on all cars, as you can keep check on excess or low tyre pressure. Coming to roads, the worst are concrete roads, where tyre pressure shoots up by 6 to psi or more during Summers. Bad roads with sharp pits is also a valid reason for tyre burst.Read allPost comment
