Most do, obviously excepting older vehicles. It's mandatory per Federal law in the US since the 2007 model year, and I believe the 2014 model year in the EU.
Still, in the nearly a century prior people managed to deal with unexpected flat tires and slow air leaks even without such electronic geegaws just fine.
My car is a 2005.
And my truck is a 1999. And none of my motorcycles have TPMS, either.
And yet, neither of us are dead.
Ok, I'm the guy who said it probably wouldn't cause an accident so it's not like I'm going to disagree with you.
