    Haha, calm down. I'm *****ing about truck drivers because most of them drive like ritards. When I was on the shoulder trying to deal with my tire, I had at least 3-4 trucks driving 85+ drive ON the rumble strip thing as they drove past me. It was particularly bad because it was raining, so as they drove past I got completely soaked. You don't HAVE to switch lanes for me, but at least drive in the lane and not on the shoulder.

      OK, sorry about the ranting. I understand about the wet part. I hate taking needless showers.

        Before a long trip, maybe a pre-trip inspection of the tire pressure was needed. From looking at your pic I'd say that was the obvious cause of tire failure.

        Some people are tire kickers and assume it's alright to take a day drive to nowhere. Then there are others who don't check at all.

        I check pretty much everything for preventative maintenance and expect long life from tires especially even if they're technically advanced.

          Yeah I always check tire pressure. Keep a gauge in every car.

            By honor system, trucks in Calif. are not allowed to be in the fast lane. Police will stop them if they are. But we have so many bad and rude truckers here.
