Police have issued a warning to drivers after a crash on the M4.
The car ended up on its roof near Swansea and officers said the driver was "lucky to get away without injury".
South Wales Police's roads unit shared pictures of the car's tyre and the vehicle being moved from the side of the road, Wales Online reports.
They said: "If there's ever an example of dangerous tyres, it's here."
They also posted advice on keeping your vehicle safe.
The law requires car tyres to have a minimum tread depth of 1.6mm in a continuous band around the central three-quarters of the tyre.
The tread must meet this minimum requirement across its complete circumference.

"Having worn tyres means the only contact patch between you and the road is past its best.
