In Italian vehicle safety and emergency procedures (Codice della Strada), what is the rule regarding the consequences of operating a vehicle with under-inflated tires (pressione insufficiente)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. Outer shoulder wear and blowout risk

  1. Step 1: Under-inflation causes the tire to sag, concentrating friction and wear on outer shoulders, flexing sidewalls, increasing rolling drag and blowout danger. Answer: Outer shoulder wear and blowout risk. Why not the others: the other options do not conform to vehicle safety standards and emergency regulations under the Codice della Strada.
