Tire pressure monitoring for new vehicles is now regulated by law throughout Europe. <\/span><\/em>
\nSome say: I don't need tire pressure monitoring; there will soon be self-driving cars, and they'll check the tire pressure themselves. Or: I'll notice when something's wrong with the tire pressure. The first argument is still a long way off, the second is a case of overconfidence and technical ignorance. <\/span><\/p>\n

When does control make sense?<\/em>
\nWe are being monitored. More and more with growing storage capacities; that is part of the history of industrial development. And we are monitoring ourselves more and more. Today we even check our blood pressure over the telephone, the heating in our homes, the electricity we use, the calories we consume. Monitoring is omnipresent and the data for comparison is available. So why should even more control, for example checking tire pressure while driving, be made a legal requirement? Isn't that just another restriction on our individual freedom? Not entirely, unless someone were to think that driving with flat tires is a fundamental right rather than a road hazard. And people are driving with flat tires, or at least with tires that are too low in pressure. <\/span><\/p>\n

What do the car services say?<\/em>
\nA quick look at a search engine reveals numerous surveys that repeatedly show that drivers aren't regularly checking their vehicles' tire pressure as recommended. Take a look at the latest DEKRA survey, for example. The ADAC also reports that tire damage to cars and trucks is once again at the top of the damage list in 2014. It's dangerous, even very dangerous, for other road users when vehicles are traveling with incorrect tire pressure. This discussion still misses the point. The correct tire pressure must be measured while driving, using sensors that display tire pressure and temperature. <\/span><\/p>\n

Is the ABS sufficient? <\/span><\/em>
\nComparing wheel rotation speed, as offered by ABS, is not sufficient; it actually lulls drivers into a false sense of security. Checking tire pressure every other refueling stop isn't enough either. What's important is a reliable warning of pressure changes while driving, and that's only possible if tire pressure and temperature are measured directly on the tire by sensors. Only with the help of such measurements can the driver be warned in a timely manner, react, and prevent the more serious damage that always results from tire blowouts. <\/span><\/p>\n

Isn't tire pressure my personal business?<\/em>
\nThis isn't a private matter, but a matter of responsible behavior as a road user. Who wants to wait for help on the side of the highway in all weathers after a flat tire? Or who wants to swerve to avoid a car with a flat tire that's skidding across the entire roadway\u2014if that's even possible? Actually, nobody. <\/span><\/p>\n

It's so easy to retrofit a direct-measuring tire monitoring system like TireMoni TPMS, and it costs very little. Especially considering the damage caused by incorrect tire pressure. Here: https:\/\/shop.TireMoni.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
