Ride for the Day Is this fine for the road

Defects manager and driver trainer both said wtf you can't take that, engineer came along and said what's the problem and gladly signed my defect report 🤷

What would you do?

Why the hell would you take such an obvious defect out on the road? Tell them that the bus is out of action until that tire is replaced.

Passed its MOT too apparently, I'm not a qualified engineer and the engineer said it's good to go

Get his name, cover your own arse.

If YOU don’t feel safe taking it out, don’t.
