Bob12345 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Are those rear tires nearly completely bald or is that an illusion? I'd say they are bald. That does explain the "car skidded out of control on a bend on the wet road." No profile on your tires means no control on wet roads... Hope they will arrest/fine him for driving around like that and bringing everyone around him in danger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billythehat Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 One of the more stupid news titles. ThePhuketNews team should think before they write. Unfortunately I hab to agree with you in this instance but note from the photo that the crash rail upstands are formed from thinned walled circular hollow sections and not the prescribed universal beam sections...tsk,tsk...RIP the Honda Civic.
