Puncture prevention refers to methods and practices aimed at reducing the risk of punctures in tires, which can lead to flat tires and safety hazards. Common strategies include using puncture-resistant tires, maintaining proper tire pressure, and regularly inspecting tires for wear and damage. Additionally, using tire sealants can help seal small punctures as they occur. It's also important to avoid driving over sharp objects and to be mindful of road conditions. Regular maintenance and awareness can significantly enhance tire longevity and safety on the road.
