| 摘要： | Tyres play a vital role in ensuring our safety on the roads but damage to them can have disastrous consequences. In 2016, information from Highways England's (now branded National Highways) released figures showed that 32 people were killed or seriously injured in motorway road traffic accidents due to illegal, defective or underinflated tyres. Subsequently, the highway authority teamed up with Bridgestone to conduct an 18-month study of damaged motorway tyres and tyre fragments. The Bridgestone Tyre Debris Study Report 2015-2017 included an analysis of 1,035 samples of failed tyres provided by Highways England (as it was then known) from four inspection sites. The results showed that tyres damaged by road hazards (impacts, penetrations and cuts) accounted for 56% of the total tyres (1,035 tyres) inspected. What's more, 64% of those were found to have at least one penetration. But the lack of debris on National Highways' managed roads prompted questions about the source of the debris. If it cannot be found on the motorway, where is it coming from? |
