Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“Vehicles are equipped with spare tires for use in an emergenc y situation in which a tire is damaged andcannot be further used. Typically, sp are tires are smaller in size relative to regular tires and tires can bereadily stored in storage compartments within the vehicles. As vehicle design choices f avour larger interiorspaces for occupants and loads, spare tires and storage co mpartments designated for storing said tiresare increasingly manufactured to be compact. Additionally, vehicle manufacturers design spare tires withthe intent ion that the spare tires will be used for a limited amount of distance. As such, spare tires aretypically thin and lack proper tread patterns, and vehicles usi ng spare tires are impacted by decreasedtraction and control. Further, since sp are tires are designed to be stored for a long period of time withoutrequiring routine maintenance, spare tires typically lack air-filled cushions, and physica l impact received atthe spare tires may directly transmit to the wheels. As suc h, suspensions of vehicles using spare tires arehighly susceptible stress when the vehicles traverse uneven terrains or degraded road conditions. Therefore, th ere is a need in the art that provides route guidance for vehicles using spare t ires based on limitationsof the spare tires and attributes of routes.“The listing or discussion of a prior-published document or any background in th is specification shouldnot necessarily be taken as an acknowledgement that the document or background is part of the state ofthe art or is common general know ledge.”
