Oh wow. I could understand them not caring if only your own life was at stake, but it's not. Here we had people try to go around the inspection process, but now all the places that do these inspections (privately owned by the way) have to have live camera feeds of the vehicle from different angles and submit photos and graphs of the vehicle status before being able to issue a sticker.
And here I am complaining about someone's light not being tuned properly while people drive with this kind of tires.
Probably living paycheck to paycheck or on the tail end of a delivery driver career as you find out that car maintenance is not free.
Not an excuse if other people can lose lives. There are used tires, cheaper tires, public transport, car pooling, etc.
One person's unacceptable excuse is another's meager existence. I'm not saying it's right, just calling out how it gets there.
