The need for the annual tyre safety campaign in the UK has once again been underlined by the research carried out by TyreSafe UK team and the evidence collated. TyreSafe and tyre safety awareness depend on support to drive the change in attitudes needed to help reduce the number of tyre-related incidents on our roads.
Over 340,000 tyres have now been surveyed by over 800 retailers across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales confirming the findings of the first phase, that more than one-in-four British motorists are replacing their tyres when they were already illegal. In 2016, that equates to potentially over 10 million illegal and dangerous tyres on Britain’s roads. In combination with the number of casualties resulting from tyre-related incidents.
In addition to the fact that routine tyre checks would prevent many of these incidents, this evidence has been the inspiration behind this year’s Tyre Safety Month campaign – Don’t chance it, Check it.
In our experiance to date here in France may of our customers to date have changed their tyres far to late.
While the need to carry out regular tyre checks may seem obvious an alarming number of motorists are replacing their tyres only when they have already become illegal and dangerous. If they carried out TyreChecks, this avoidable safety issue could be rectified.
We conduct tyre checks FREE OF CHARGE dont leave it to late call in for a check – Don’t chance it, Check it.
