  1. Tractor-trailer retread tires: Safe?

    <strong><em>Q: I enjoyed your recent article on tire technology improvements and the demise of the full-sized spare. One area where technology appears to still need improvement is in recapping of tires. This observation is based on the amount of tire-tread debris on roadways, particularly on interstate highways. It is not uncommon to have to swerve around sections of tire tread on the roadway. I have had at least one instance where we were nearly struck by tread from the truck ahead of us while traveling at highway speeds. It would be interesting to learn how often accidents have been attributed to retreaded tire sections coming off of trucks and what process improvements have been made in recent years. As I understand it, retreaded tires are seldom used any longer on passenger vehicles, but they are common on truck tires for cost reasons.</em></strong>
