Look closely. Look at the third set of wheels back, second set from the right. I know, I know, it is very difficult to see the tread. That’s because there is NO tread left on this tire.

Other tires on this truck were already shredding. Look, the one just in front of the bare-tread tire had some kind of exterior coating kind of thing on it, like a whole tire patch of some kind, also shredding. He is carrying a heavy load load. This is a disaster waiting to happen.

To my left is a police car.

I can’t remember? Is Kuwait the #1 most dangerous country for driving in the world, or the #2?

  2. People need to enforce the law on all in Kuwait – if this happened, everything would move smoothly: services, business, etc.

    And most of all it would protect people’s lives and livelihoods.

    Sadly that picture is an all too familiar sight.

  6. Chikapappi – it breaks my heart – someone is saving a few dinars not buying new tires, and it will cost thousands when these tires fail and cause a bad accident.

    Amer – loved your latest editorial! It’s a must read.
