If a tyre bursts on your car

The Multiband is fitted inside your wheel, under your normal tyre. It keeps a flat tyre on the rim, so you can steer, brake and pull over.

How this is compiled

We list public reports from Malaysia and Singapore where a tyre burst is reported as a cause or suspected cause. Tyres that come off for other reasons, punctures, tyre fires and motorcycles are not included. Malay and Chinese headlines are translated. This is a record of media reports, not official statistics, and it is not a complete count.
