Drivers are expected to maintain the good condition of their tires and check if they are already worn out because failure to do so can suddenly result to a tragic road accident.
In fact, a big rig with a blown tire had apparently caused injury to three people when it triggered a four-vehicle accident along the Foothill (210) Freeway in Pasadena.
According to reports, two people sustained serious injuries while another one is now under a critical condition. All of them were brought to a hospital to receive treatment for their injuries.
Police said two drivers needed to be extricated from two different vehicles, which include one that rolled over.
All westbound lanes were closed by the California Highway Patrol (CHP) for hours after the incident.
Avoiding accidents caused by blown tires requires little effort from drivers. They should always remember their obligation of checking the condition of their tires not only for their own sake, but for the safety of all road users.
