I don't give a fata. I still expect a lower income family to have a vehicle maintained properly. I expect to see all brake lights, headlights, etc. working. I expect their brakes to be working. I expect their car to be maintained well enough that they're not going to stall on the side of Deerfoot making my commute 30 minutes longer on the way home from work. And I wish winter tires were mandatory. If you can't afford to own a safely maintained car, then take the bus.
I don't like blowing my money any more than anybody else, and yeah, tires are not a 'fun' purchase. I just bought a set on Kijiji last week for half the price of new with 95% tread left. There are ways to minimize the cost.
