Tire Bursting...What Do We Do?

[ian_rex]

baka yung mga dugtungan yun. dahil hindi naman pwede sa isang tulay ang isang mahabang slab ng concrete, else babagsak yun. anyway, pag high speed mas prone ang sasakyan sa mga bumps. =>

yup dont step on the brakes, 9 years ago ganyan din ang sinapit ko.
i was traveling at a cruising rate of 85-90 kph sa NLEX north bound.
then my rear right tire went kaboom!!!
i CALMLY rolled into the shoulder. went to my tools, ang changed them,

a couple of years ago naman i witness a auv with front tire bursting, nag topsy turvy, buti na lang pa punta sa grassy area nin the middle of the nlex,
i went to check on them, shocked as they were, they were ok pero yung auv wasak.

i heard from someone that having low profile tires will lower/minimize the impact should your tires burst.

papano kapag sa zigzag ka inabot nang pagsabog nang tires? yung kaibigan ko dati nakasakay daw sila sa rented na L300 papuntang tanay rizal, nung papababa na sila sa zigzag portion nang laguna, sumabog yung right tire, muntik na silang mahulog sa bangin, buti na lang at sumabit yung L300 sa puno nang niyog wala namang namatay but lahat sila eh naospital...my friend suffered a broken rib.... buti na lang at di daw masyadong mabilis yung takbo nila dahil they are negotiating a curve. eh pano kaya kung kotse ang dala mo, kaya kasi nang kotse ang around 50to 60 KPH sa ganong curve eh

if that happens, simply put your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye. ;)

frankly, I prefer to take my curves at around 60kph to 80kph.

napansin ko lang sa manila-bound na tulay na yun sa candaba, parang taas-baba ang sasakyan while cruising at high speed??

because most trucks bound for manila ay puno ng karga, so mas mabigat, thus mas bumagsak yung tulay. sa north bound ng candaba viaduct hindi naman masyadong matalon mga cars dahil wala ng laman mga trucks pag galing ng manila.
