If by worn out you mean that it is getting thin, then get a new one soon. If by worn out you mean it just shakes when you go to stop, have it resurfaced. If it was only the one side you need to have them check for a sticking caliper or a hose that is collapsing, either one can cause the brake to hang on that side and your new rotor and pads won't last long.

No it's not safe. Get a brake job done promptly before you have an accident. Midas and several other brake shops will do you a good job at a reasonable cost and guarantee the work.

Depends....has it cut itsself in half yet, is it cracked, or are we talking about just a warped rotor? It's OK to drive on a warped rotor, just get it fixed when you can, you may end up doing damage to your tires or other brake components in the long run, but it should be OK to drive 5 to 10 thousand miles. Good luck.

If only 1 is bad ,then you may also have a sticky caliper.Change them both.So you dont wear out the new rotor when you do change it.

Technically, no. But if you're not hearing grinding metal, then you have some time before you must change it or get it resurfaced.

Sure, just throw the transmission into reverse if you can't slow down fast enough.

It is perfectly safe,
as long as you don't have
to slow down or stop.
