When a tyre's rubber hardens with age, is this dangerous?

Correct answer

Yes, because the vehicle can skid due to lack of grip.

With continued use, weather conditions and age, the rubber on our vehicle's tyres tends to harden and crack, losing its grip on the road surface, making driving very dangerous and potentially causing the vehicle to skid due to lack of grip on the road.
