A big warning tyres / punctures

[mattds3sport]

Warning for all who find themselves in a situation with flat tyre and trying to re inflate it. If you have driven with it flat please seriously consider not attempting to re inflate. I found out why at work today whislt pumping up a used / repaired lorry tyre ( un beknowns to me ) somebody had driven on it flat and the tiny wires inside break when they do this so when i pumped it upto pressure (110psi) it went BANG at the weak point and i got thrown 5-6 meters back damaged shin ,hand and deaf for 16 hours so far. They are KILLERS i was lucky be careful even a car tyre can be lethal if u r gonna do it stand as far away as possible / to the side of the tyre not infront of it. Warning over taa

God, your lucky not to have been killed. Hope your OK.

I hope that you put it in the accident book!

[Bigfeet]

As the others said, hope you get fighting fit again quickly.

It's shocking to think that the laziness of one person can cause such an accident as that, thankfully you weren't more injured than you were.
