There were no regulations about the state of tyres in those days. I remember one farm on which I worked, and a truck came loaded with ground loimestone to spread on some of the fields (an ancient practice to sweeten the soil and improve the ph). This was a converted military truck, 6x4, unrecognisable with white dust stuck to it all over. It went a little way down the firm track, then tried to turn up-hill onto the land to be treated. The land was clay, wet and slippery. The dual rear wheels churne=ned round and round, and it wasn't going anytwhere. He made several attampts in different places. All the while the tyres were trailiing loose flaps of rubber - they were re -treads, already sheredded with working on the land and getting stuck. The tyres were like an old pair of rubber boots, totally shagged. Cue for session in the barn bringing things to a conclusion.

Would love of watch that, sinking it into the field could be a sport

He could of ad it up is dirt schute
-
@sig and the driver could catch on and say, "just want to see me spin my tires?" And go from there.

In theory South America should be a breeding ground of stuck lovers. Poor infrastructure, difficult terrain and underpowered/unmantained vehicles are a match made in heaven, at least for me.

@drmoneystacks many heavy vehicles in Latin America have tire pressure control systems automatically controlled by the driver for soft or slick roads or terrain, often to little avail.

That’s not always the case. Whilst it is true that modern heavy vehicles have those features they’re still a lot of old antiquated units still roaming around.
Light duty and medium duty vehicles are still a great source of… “stucks” imo. More often than not they’re neglected 10/15+ year old vehicles or newer but underpowered Chinese utility vehicles. The amount of times I’ve seen beat up cop pick up stuck in the mud with bald tires or overloaded Chinese utilitarians trying to get unstuck would surprise you. -

@westfil11 They're not quite down to the wear indicators but getting close.
