Just saw the resultsof a bad motorhome accident south os Stephenville, TX on hwy 281. A very nicely painted older Prevost or bus conversion had gone off the highway and hit a very large tree on th e ...
That tire is deteriorated all the way around, so I think it was driven with low air for some time before temperature made the rubber soft. My conversion has 2 shinier wheel wells, meaning PO had to have at least 2 flats on it, but no damage to the body. So don't get paranoid. Blown tire doesn't have to lead to accident. Murphy law says it takes chain of at least 3 bad incidents to make bad accident.
