Issues related to tyre safety are one of the major concerns when discussing the motor-vehicles' safety. Moreover, various articles reported in the print and electronic media on tyre failures, particularly involving retread tyres were often associated as the cause of crashes. However, before any effective solutions can be proposed to the relevant authorities, weaknesses and loopholes in the current ecosystem needs to be identified. Thus, this paper is aimed at reviewing the current status of motor vehicle tyre ecosystem in the country and establishing the knowledge on current related issues. This paper will look into five stages in the ecosystem, from tyre production until disposal and tyre scraping. Current and potential gaps are identified and recommendations to improve the situations are put forward. To enable a clearer explanation of the issues found and the proposed recommendations, the findings are tabulated according to each stage. The findings are expected to provide useful insights into the current status and issues in the ecosystem, and providing a useful and beneficial method of solution.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
