The Ministry of Interior advises motorists to take caution when using balloon tires on their vehicles. It has been observed that improper handling of such materials can potentially result in accidents. The Ministry has issued a reminder after a video was shared on social media depicting a car accident resulting from the usage of balloon tires on paved roads.
As per the Ministry's statement, balloon tires are known to be slippery and susceptible to explosions. In addition, they are prone to stretching out when driven at high speeds of 100km/h or in high temperatures, leading to wear and tear.
The Ministry emphasized that the tires are exclusively designed for sandy terrains and not intended for use on paved roads or driving at high speeds.
