Some folks are good at making a morning psi check and thump the tires at each fuel stop each day while others maybe at the start of a trip.
One thing we do know is what will happen with a 10 year old tire on a trailer then make a couple of 600 mile a day run at interstate speeds. Better have a good spare and a quick way to change a shredded tire.
