Tyre Pressure & Tread Depth Neglected in Winter – TyreSafe

Date: 8th January 2008 Author: Tyrepress Editors Comments: 0

TyreSafe has marked the post New Year return to work, and the daily commute, by issuing another warning about the importance of regularly checking tyre pressure and tread depth. The organisation’s latest report quotes disturbing figures from surveys conducted by vehicle supermarket Motorpoint, which indicates more than 50 per cent of drivers fail to regularly check their tyre pressure before embarking on a journey, and by carmaker Kia, which found that one in three drivers failed to check their tread depth even monthly during the 2007 winter season.

Commenting on the findings, TyreSafe explains: “These results are of particular concern, as it clearly shows that motorists are simply not prepared for the colder weather. With snow and ice forecast to hit the country’s roads in during the next few days, we strongly advise that motorists pay even greater attention to the condition of their tyres and find out their manufacturer recommended pressures if they are unsure.”

TyreSafe recommends that motorists check their tyres before every journey, and more thoroughly on a monthly basis.
