Show answer

Correct answer

  • BReventar al calentarse demasiadoBursting because it gets too hot
Explanation

The driver of a vehicle must check their vehicle's tyres often and inflate them if necessary, because an under-inflated tyre can burst if it gets too hot. A tyre with too little air will never last more years than a correctly inflated one.
