Does anyone else think those who drive and yak on their cell phones pose a serious risk to other drivers?

Pretty much by what they look like. They don't wear out until they are worn down. Age and weather will affect them. A tire may have a decent amount of tread remaining, but be no good due to weather checking, cracking etc. Tires that look good should be replaced if over 10 years old.

can any one tell me how many accident's are cause by smoking pot?

Looks, age, type, maintenance. Garage kept? If, you have your car outside all year round the weather will affect your tires by drying them out. You should have your tires balanced and rotated when they are needed. Do you use armor on all your tires, that too will affect the tires by drying them out. Do you have the right type of tires on your car. Are they mixed up with different brands and threads? You should keep them all the same when possible. Do you have an 8, 15 or 20yr old car in great condition rarely driven, very low miles but you never changed your tires? Age of the car is also a huge factor. I'm sure you have seen on the roads like many of us have seen (pieces) of tires everywhere, that's a very dangerous sign. Still not sure what to do? Have them checked out by a tire specialist, get a 2nd opinion when in doubt. Good Luck!
