Do you sometimes worry about all four tires on your car simultaneously popping off while driving down the highway? And then your vehicle careens down the road with sparks flying until you hit a guardrail or other obstacle designed to stop you in such foreseeable situations? I’m pretty sure that’s what the highway planners were thinking when they installed them.
I’ve actually witnessed one tire pop off of a car, but if one can do it I know all four can. This thought plagues me at least once a week. Think about it. Those tires are held on by four bolts tighted by human hands. Can you really trust the guy at Jiffy Lube to have such worries in mind? We should probably launch a campaign for all car-fixing places to hire mothers as overseers. I think they’re truly the only ones who can think through all the possible dangers. You can never be too safe.
