ORLANDO, Fla. – Over the past week, we’ve seen a few incidents on our roads that all seem to tie back to one common issue — tire blowouts.
Now, I get it — this isn’t something we can exactly circle on our calendars and prepare for like a scheduled oil change.
Blowouts can occur suddenly, unexpectedly, and can be quite frightening. However, even though we may not be able to predict when they will happen, there are steps we can take to help prevent them. It is crucial to also know what to do if we ever find ourselves in such a situation.
It’s not just about the tires; it’s about the safety of everyone inside the vehicle. This includes your loved ones, other drivers on the road, and even the workers trying to make their way back home along the roadside.
Therefore, in today’s discussion, we will go for a leisurely drive and have a frank conversation about the importance of vehicle positioning, staying attentive, and learning how to prevent — or at the very least, reduce — the risks associated with a tire blowout.
If we can help even one person feel more prepared and confident behind the wheel, then it’s worth every second.
Join me at 10 a.m. and let’s talk about how to keep rolling safely, one tire at a time.
