Friday, bin men day. HBC bin wagon comes along the street and i noticed the front tyre was very, very, very illegal. The wall had completely split and was bulging out and the tyre pressure was half of what it should have been.
If i had been the driver of that wagon i would have completely refused to take it out.
Just imagine the damage to somebodys property/ car or human life if this had blown.
At the end of the day this is a very unroadworthy vehicle being used on public roads so i reporetd it to the traffic police. Dont know if they bothered to go and find it , but i am totally disgusted at the state of that tyre.

I will be waiting with baited breath in a fortnight to see if its the same bin wagon and if its been changed.
