From Guest Contributor<\/span>: Christopher Dewall <\/a><\/strong>– Transportation Safety Specialist<\/p>\n

According to the National Transportation Safety Board data suggests that at least 33,000 crashes each year in the U.S. are attributable to tire issues in general. That federal agency specifically classifies\u00a02,000 of those 33,000\u00a0as involving tire blowouts.<\/span><\/p>\n

80% of all tire blowouts are caused by deterioration of the tread and\/or casing related to the heat caused by sidewall flexing of the underinflated tire.<\/span>
\u00a0<\/span>
The DOT has established many safety regulations for tires used on commercial vehicles. The FMCSA with help from Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance is in charge of enforcing those tire safety regulations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Most importantly, your truck will be placed out of service and you can\u2019t drive the CMV until the condition is fixed, if you have a tire that:<\/span><\/p>\n

393.75 Tires.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Has body ply or belt material exposed through the tread or sidewall<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Has any tread or sidewall separation<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Is flat or has an audible leak, or<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Has a cut to the extent that the ply or belt material is exposed<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    393.75(a)(3)\u00a0Flat Tire or Audible Leak violation is one of the most common vehicle related violations\u00a0given every year. In the last 5 years, over 456,000 of these violations have been issued.<\/span><\/p>\n

    DOT Steer Tire Regulations<\/span><\/p>\n

    DOT\u00a0steer tire regulations are a set of rules and guidelines that commercial vehicles must follow when it comes to their steer tires. According to the DOT (49 CFR 393.75b),\u00a0\u201cany tire on the front wheels of a truck, or truck tractor shall have a tread groove pattern depth of at least 4\u204432 of an inch when measured at any point on a major tread groove.<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":135152,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2,3147,3176,18],"tags":[3173,3172,3175,3174],"yoast_head":"\nSteer Tire Blowouts - The Cause of Deadly Collisions - Advanced Mobility Solutions<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"TECH Tire Repair's TECH Chek tire leak detecting solution\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/advancedmobility.ai\/steer-tire-blowouts-the-cause-of-deadly-collisions\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Steer Tire Blowouts - The Cause of Deadly Collisions\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"According to the National Transportation Safety Board data suggests that at least 33,000 crashes each year in the U.S. are attributable to tire issues in general.
