Is the friction increased with increased temperature?

You drove continuously from Laguna to Manila and you observed that the pressure in your tires increased. This is because of the increased temperature outside the tire caused by friction.

The correct answer is true. Heat increases pressure, road friction heats up the tires, therefore the friction caused by a long drive heating up the tires, heats up the air inside them, in turn increasing the pressure.
