๐ง T โ Top-up: Fuel, oil, screen wash โ make sure your carโs ready
๐ R โ Rest: Take a break at least every 2 hours to avoid fatigue
๐ I โ Inspect: Check your tyres โ pressure, tread, condition
๐ฆ P โ Prepare: For all weather โ pack essentials (water, warm clothes, sun/shade gear) and have a plan
๐ Tyre issues were the leading cause of breakdowns on UK major roads in 2024 โ over 53,000 incidents.
โ ๏ธ Yet, 55% of drivers donโt check tread depth before long journeys, and 48% skip tyre pressure checks.
๐ธ Illegal and underinflated tyres cost drivers up to ยฃ1 billion in wasted fuel each year โ and in 2023, over 190 people were killed or seriously injured in tyre-related collisions.
