They are not safe. If you have no other option, try to stay under 55 mph and be careful with potholes.
You might be able to go 90 on the freeway with no issues, or they might explode without warning and spin you into a tree. Just be careful and take it slow.

Drive slow and careful to the nearest tire shop.
Looks like the tread is a sneeze away from separating.

They’re coming up on their expiration date. I’d give them up as soon as you can.
