Inflated and partially inflated tires should be handled with

Handling inflated and partially inflated tires requires a high degree of care and respect, similar to that required for live ordnance. This is because improperly handling these tires can lead to a significant safety hazard, including the risk of explosion or injury. High-pressure tires can store a large amount of energy, and if they are punctured or mishandled, they can burst, causing debris to fly and potentially injuring anyone nearby. The appropriate precautions and respect for their condition ensure that safety protocols are followed, minimizing risks during handling and maintenance.

In contrast, the other approaches do not convey the necessary level of caution required. Minimal precautions might underestimate the dangers associated with high-pressure tires, while standard handling techniques may not fully address the specific risks involved. Similarly, promoting ease for efficiency could lead to careless practices that overlook safety measures essential for handling inflated tires.
