Over 200,000 Irish car tests fail yearly due to unsafe tyres, linked to up to 14 deaths, officials warn.
Over 200,000 annual National Car Test failures in Ireland are linked to tyre defects, with hidden internal damage like split inner walls posing serious safety risks.
The Road Safety Authority estimates such issues may contribute to up to 14 road deaths yearly.
Drivers are urged to check tyre tread depth (minimum 1.6mm), proper inflation, and visible damage like bulges, cuts, or exposed wires.
Weekly visual and tactile inspections, including feeling for soft spots, and monthly thorough checks are recommended, with professional inspections advised if uncertainty remains.
