Addressing Tire Wear and Environmental Impact
The impact of ultra-fine plastic particles from tire wear on people is still uncertain, but driving a heavier car can accelerate tire wear and particle production. Technological solutions like devices using electrostatic technology to gather particles, exploring alternative tire materials, and focusing on reducing carbonaceous particulate matter from exhaust pipes are key areas of research and development to mitigate environmental impact.
