Does anyone know what the deal is when a tyre is worn down level with the broken band that signifies the tyre is ready for cutting?
As there is still around 3mm of depth each side of this band within the tyre tread is it still legal, or would the band have to be removed ASAP?
Hope it makes sense 
For a truck (or motorcycle) the law says there must be 1mm of tread across 75% of the tread area of the tyre (the bit what touches the road). So if youāre down to the 3mm partā¦youāre still legal, but get them re-cut soonish.
I took over a truck for the week last week. On my first daily check, I found 1 āracing slickā and 2 āDubiousā tyres on the trailer. I asked the regular driver what the crack was and he said āif itās round and black, itās OKā
The wagon went no-where until it had 3 new tyres on the trailer!
