True but not everyone has the option. I am blessed enough that I have good tires but I have slid my way into work becuase it was mandatory many times

There's a difference between poor or rich and safe or unsafe. Unsafe driving is just that. Safety doesn't care about your socioeconomic status... Don't drive unsafe.

Well if that was a super privileged response....some people have no choice. That's where the socio-economic status comes into play...when you have to make hard choices, like have money to live, or not work.

By no means am I saying hard decisions aren't made. I'm saying safety doesn't care. If you drive unsafe you put others at risk, not just yourself.
