More to it than that. Note it’s on a semi. Tires on semis tend to get like that after they’ve blown out. A lot of damage has already been done to the tire at that point, and it shreds fast. You have to run on it a little bit to get someplace safe to pull over.
Blowouts tend to happen from either letting the tread wear down too far, over-airing the tire and/or running on it while it’s too hot, running too fast too often ( Usually just when combined with other causes ), or letting a leak go unfixed for too long.
I’m sorry Tyger, that does not look like any rig I’ve driven. It does look like a delivery van or bus tho’. And any smart pro driver won’t let it get that way for the sake of others.
How does this even happen?
By driving on it while it’s flat.
