Another Tire Accident That Could Have Been Avoided
This video breaks my heart every time I watch it, but it sends a clear message about the danger of non-displaceable tires.
And while not every crash results in injury, in this case the dog WAS injured and there is no reason for it.

Please spread this video to make all aware of the dangers and to speak up about change!
And while I know there is expenses involved in making changes in equipment, some are well justified.
