Winter brings cold weather, icy roads, and reduced grip.

✅ Check your tyre tread
✅ Maintain proper tyre pressure – cold weather reduces it
✅ Inspect tyres for bulges or tears
✅ Change your tyres if needed

Stay road-ready and safe this season! 🌨️

In wet weather, stopping distances will be at least double that required for stopping on dry roads. This is because your tyres have less grip on the road.

In wet weather:

- You should keep well back from the vehicle in front. This will increase your ability to see and plan ahead.

- If the steering becomes unresponsive, it could mean water is affecting your vehicle's grip on the road.

- Ease off the accelerator and slow down gradually.

- The rain and spray from vehicles may make it difficult to see and be seen.

- Be aware of the dangers of spilt diesel that will make the surface very slippery.

- Take extra care around pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists and horse riders.
