I need some space please.

The weather is heating up, which means tires are heating up. This also means at any given moment a tire will blow out. If this is a steer tire on a 18 wheeler, we immediately lose control. The first natural instinct is to slam on the brakes, which makes things worse. If an 18 wheeler blows a steer and you are traveling right next to them, it could be deadly.

Please do not ride along the highway with us. If you have no choice but to ride next to us, just slow down a little until you are able to pass. Remember a tire on any vehicle can blow at ANY moment.

You WILL be seeing blown out tires, vehicles on the side of the road. Please give them space or slow down.
