1.4. TIRE SAFETY - EVERYTHING RIDES ON IT
The National Traffic Safety Administration (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:
http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/TireSafety/ridesonit/tires_index.html
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 booklet presents a comprehensive overview of tire safety, including information on
the following topics:
• Basic tire maintenance
• Uniform Tire Quality Grading System
