The National Traffic Safety (NHTSA) has published a brochure (DOT HS 809 361) that discusses all
aspects of Tire Safety, as required by CFR 575.6. This brochure is reproduced in part below. It can be
obtained and downloaded from NHTSA, free of charge, from the following web site:

Studies of tire safety show that maintaining proper tire pressure, observing tire and vehicle load limits (not
carrying more weight in your vehicle than your tires or vehicle can safely handle), avoiding road hazards,
and inspecting tires for cuts, slashes, and other irregularities are the most important things you can do to
avoid tire failure, such as tread separation or blowout and flat tires. These actions, along with other care
and maintenance activities, can also:
•
Improve vehicle handling
•
Help protect you and others from avoidable breakdowns and accidents
•
Improve fuel economy
•
Increase the life of your tires
This section presents a comprehensive overview of tire safety, including information on the following
topics:
•
Basic tire maintenance
•
Uniform Tire Quality Grading System
•
Fundamental characteristics of tires
•
Tire safety tips
Use this information to make tire safety a regular part of your vehicle maintenance routine. Recognize that
the time you spend is minimal compared with the inconvenience and safety consequences of a flat tire or
other tire failure.
