Don't Let Potholes Ruin Your Spring Fun
Enjoy Spring Without Falling into Pothole Trouble
Summary
Spring is a season many of us eagerly anticipate. However, once the showers wash away winter's remnants, we often find ourselves dodging pesky potholes on the roads.Understanding Potholes
Potholes form as pavement weathers and ages. Over time, pavement loses its resistance to water, leading to small cracks. When water seeps in and freezes, it expands, pushing up the pavement. The weight of cars and trucks further breaks this weakened pavement, creating potholes.Avoiding Pothole Damage
Encountering a pothole can spoil a lovely spring day and damage tires or wheels. A sharp impact may cause immediate tire or wheel failure, or lead to issues weeks later. Here are some tips to protect your vehicle:- Ensure Proper Tire Inflation: Keeping tires properly inflated reduces damage from potholes and other road hazards.
- Check Tire Tread: Uneven wear might indicate misalignment. Potholes can affect your vehicle's alignment, so if your car "pulls" to one side, have it checked by a professional to ensure wheels and tires are properly aligned and balanced.
- Braking Tips: If you can't avoid a pothole, avoid braking during impact. Instead, brake beforehand and release just before hitting the pothole. This prevents a "solid hit" and reduces the risk of damage by allowing the tire to roll over the pothole.
Spring Maintenance Tips
Just as you clean your home in spring, take advantage of warmer weather to ensure your vehicle is in top condition. Proper tire maintenance includes rotation, inflation, repair, and replacement.- Regular Pressure Checks: Check tire pressure at least once a month.
- Follow Rotation Recommendations: Rotate your tires as advised by your owner's manual.
By following these simple maintenance tips, you can avoid the pitfalls of wet driving conditions and the hazards of potholes, ensuring a safe and enjoyable spring season.
