A day after the accident, someone asked if I was scared to get behind the wheel again. Not at all, I responded. But reflecting on that question I have to admit, what really scares me is the combination of wet roads and bald tires, something I can take care of for my own vehicle but have no control over when it comes to someone else's.

So if you're not fortunate enough to be able to pick up a new Tribute and gain peace of mind from its outstanding safety features, at the very least spring for a fresh set of all-season, snow or wet weather tires.
