that has to be the worst advice you could give. Something in writing telling you it’s fine doesn’t get you off the hook, it’s the drivers responsibility. If you drive it and wipe out a family in a crash you would still be heading straight to jail.

that doesn’t mean the second opinion is correct, if I get a text from someone telling me I can shoot someone in the head and they’ll be fine I’d still go to jail. It’s the drivers responsibility to make sure it’s legal (by measuring the tread depth) or defect it and get it changed. I’m pretty sure if the shit hit the fan the office would just say it looked fine in the photo but I couldn’t tell for certain.

[WWallero]

Looks as though it is just barely legal in the groove but that tyre is sketchy as feck. Was this in your walk around?

[Popain]

yes

[WWallero]

yes

I think I would be asking for a call out then.

[kristiano07]

Will pass inspection but.... tracking is put so could end up down to the cord in no time.

[misztally]

Still fine

[Dorinfo]

I would not take it out, if u like a nice big boom explosion and wipe everything near to u thank god help u! Don’t ask anyone if your job and life is at risk!

[Pauallo]

3/4 of tread still within limits by looks, 1mm min tread so yes legal however looking at that it’s a potential blow out so take it easy or just refuse to take it saying it’s a potential blow out

[poljaker]

Still good

[down2re]

How much do you value your ring if Vosa catches you and your life of course

[Silcoxym]

If your not happy then don’t drive it.

[burnsio]

if you feel it's risky for you don't drive, after all it's your driving license you're risking, not someone else's, when something happens every manager will say the same, the driver is responsible for checking the truck.

[MCkinneto]

It's f**ked get it changed. People's lives are at risk for f**k sake

[Doddson]

It's f**ked get it changed. People's lives are at risk for f**k sake

somebody with sense

[JakeRaw]

That's needing g changed 1000%

[Jasonee]

Point to note ..ANYONE who said take this out what a bunch of cowboys you are, it has cord showing , it's clearly overly worn on one edge, it is NOT legal.....no it's or buts.....only tossers would take this on the road even worse in wet and winter conditions.

[Liamce]

Couple of thousand km in that yet

[Popesco52]

Don't risk your and others life with front tyres the tracking is gone. It is not safe to drive. I would definitely refuse driving it. You must make your point and don't let yourself pushed by your managers, your driving it, it's your responsibility, just say " im not driving it, tracking gone I'm not feeling safe" end of story.

[malland]

Technically it’s just ok 1 mm over 3/4 of tyre, but that tyres fucked mate an I’d say the tracking needs doing

[Keithos]

let some air out, call tyre company, sorry boss puncture problem solved

[Antonic1448]

U get 3 point Xmas present is this ur regular truck ??? As that tyre ain’t got bad overnight

[Jimmello]

Don’t take it

[Chriium]

I would refuse to take that onto a public road.

[vasillog]

Report it to VOSA and they’ll get it changed for you. Job done! No drama! What’s the issue?!?

[sturmax65]

Tell them to drive it to get it get changed , take and keep photos of it and get messages not phone calls of conversation about taking it then if they sack you for refusing take them to court

[Popain]

it was indeed somebody who had a look and said it is okay. Dont know if he had a look properly

[sturmax65]

Somebody hasn't been doing daily checks though !!!

[marnson]

Somebody hasn't been doing daily checks though !!!

common, just seen a household branded truck with no lights on the m62..

[Popain]

Somebody hasn't been doing daily checks though !!!

also somebody been driving this unit since 2 weeks ago when i refused first time

[Alexanti]

DONT DO IT. Your license is at stake.

[LSkinnes]

It looks legal from here,but if you get tugged and DVSA see it they will almost certainly give the rest of the truck a good looking at.

[Tors2free]

No No No !!!
Front tyre, if it blows up you will have roll over !
Potentially can murder someone !

[colleyez]

Still legal mate but keep on eye as this can go fast.

[elliottel]

Defo don’t take it

[Jurkudo]

If you can see the wire it’s not legal if it just worn still legal but under advisory to get changed.

[Popain]

If you can see the wire it’s not legal if it just worn still legal but under advisory to get changed.

did took ot to work shop. Was no wire except the tyre tread. Been arguing like 2 hours and in the end ...

[andexus]

No,no.. don't take it mate..

[CrosbyRO]

Is that the cord???

[Popain]

Is that the cord???

no. Just smal cut maybe

[Roidello]

1.6 mm over 3/4 of the tyre unless the wire is showing

[chriseolo]

1.6 mm over 3/4 of the tyre unless the wire is showing

wrong it's one mm for lorries 1.6 for cars

[Fitsette]

Its all good

[Fitsette]

Minimum tread depth 1mm (vehicle over 3,500kg gross vehicle weight) over a continuous band covering at least any three-quarters of the breadth of the tread around the entire circumference.

[A1Ahmed]

No..don't take it.

[Nazgner]

No never you can see the tread

[Desticcio]

Had same before, tyre fitter come out and said it's good there's 6 mm of tread must have checked the 5th wheel tread 1mm on 2/3 of tyre, didn't move it until it was replaced

[Popain]

i think that part of the tyre was on the floor and he didnt look everywhere. Its so cold nobody will stay and look around . I had a blow up tyre which was3mm last year on m1 and took me 800 yards to stop the truck so i always check. Lucky was nobody on the road

[geovanMr]

Refuse to drive!!

[skippiCo]

Tell them to drive it

[jonsepin]

Three quarters of tread on & good to go

[wooderie]

Split in the tyre, is a defect, report on sheet/book and advice for a call out, or go to the nearest commercial Tyre replacement authorized company that is on the companies list with an account.

[Inelleon]

Is this an f1 tyre?

[Popain]

Is this an f1 tyre?

let me solve it
