Expressing support for the designation of the week of June 30 through July 4, 2025, as "National Tire Safety Week" in the United States, and supporting the goals and ideals of "National Tire Safety Week" to educate American motorists about the importance of proper tire care and maintenance.

Key Points

• This resolution officially recognizes the first week of July as a time to focus on tire safety. It aims to teach drivers how to take care of their tires to prevent accidents and save lives on the road.
• Drivers are encouraged to check their tire pressure once a month when the tires are cold. Proper pressure helps with car control, improves gas mileage, and prevents tires from wearing out too early or failing while driving.
• The resolution suggests checking tire tread using a simple penny test. If you put a penny upside down in the tread and can see all of Lincoln's head, the tread is too thin and the tire might need to be replaced.
• Regular maintenance like rotating and balancing tires every 5,000 to 7,500 miles is also recommended. Keeping tires in good shape helps cars handle better in rain and reduces the risk of flat tires or blowouts.
