Exclamation The Aged Tire Crisis! Duh-duh-dahhhh!!!

I got this in a safety email this morning. It's a video about how as tires age the tread can come loose from the wheel and cause your vehicle to go out of control.

Most of us here probably already know the dangers associated with tires in general. Some may not, so here is the link.

I do think they go a wee bit over board like this is some kind of major epidemic. Plus, not everyone knows how to tell when a tire is manufactured. (explained herin).

Thoughts??? Opinions???
