Sometimes the "peeled off truck tire retreads" can't be helped. Until the federal DOT outlaws them we will have to deal with them. I drive a truck and do not agree with the fact companies use retreads (cost measures to the company), because I feel they are not safe to me and other motorists. But I have no say whatsoever on what goes on my truck, until I buy my own truck. You have companies that make the retreads that say they have been doing it for "x" years, why haven't they figured out how to keep them from peeling? My rant for the day, sorry.

Let's all take bets on how long it will be before this expensive new stretch of freeway will be trashed with graffiti, trash, peeled-off truck tire retreads, garbage, abandoned/burned-out cars, cracked pavement, potholes, inoperable freeway lights, etc. I give it to about 9:00 PM tonight.
