Is it illegal to drive on bald tires in California?

It is illegal because driving with bald tyres does not give you friction when driving on a legal road.Laws vary from state to state.. Most all states have some type of requirements for a vehicles tires,some are more lax than others.Some States require vehicles to have a minimum tread height,meaning you cant drive on bald tires..In the majority of states it is not something a police officer will look for unless of course bald tires were the cause of an accident...(then it can be a fine and ticket).If you are found to have bald tires the majority of time a police officer will issue a repair warning giving you 30 days to get new tires,you must get the new tires and return to the police station/barracks and have an officer sign off on the repair order..You have to check with your local police dept for the laws in your area...

What would cause my car to bounce continuously and my steering wheel to shake when just driving down the road My tires are almost bald and it hardly get's driven Would new tires solve the problem?

New tires certainly wouldn't hurt. Your bouncing and shaking is most likely caused by and "impact bubble" or a belt separation on one or more of the tires. Bald tires, result in MAJOR safety issues, including traction, steering, handleing, stopping, and if a blow out occurs, you will be throwing rubber and steel shrapnel into everyone else's path that's behind or beside you. Get those tires replaced!
