The local news recently reported about a severe highway accident just outside of a neighboring community, that resulted in two fatalities. Expired tires that were eight years old were blamed.
The factors in this unfortunate incident seem to be expired tires, speed, and not wearing seat belts. I can't help but wonder, if any one of these factors had been changed, would the accident have been averted? While the speed wasn't excessive for the weather and highway conditions, it appears it was for the condition of the tires.
