What is a primary goal of conducting tire inspections before towing?

The primary goal of conducting tire inspections before towing is to prevent accidents caused by tire failure. Ensuring the tires are in good condition is critical for safe towing, as tires that are worn, under-inflated, or damaged can lead to blowouts or loss of control while driving. Proper tire maintenance contributes to the overall stability of the vehicle and trailer, minimizing the risk of accidents which could result in injury or property damage. Before towing, confirming that the tires are adequately inflated, have sufficient tread depth, and are free from any visible defects is essential for safe operation on the road.
