Tyre Safety Month

Tyre company Continental are backing the campaign of ‘tyre safety month’.

Its to help raise awareness of how tyres can be affected during the winter, as there are specifictyres made for winter.

They have more traction on them to avoid slipping around on icy weather.

Tracey Hyem, A manager at Continental said “We look on with envy at European countries that manage to keep business going as usual when a few flakes of snow bring our roads to a standstill.

“Those countries have a history of fitting the right tyres for the right season. Winter tyres are available to purchase in the UK from all good retailers. Our advice to drivers is to think about winter tyres early now. There’s no point in being stuck on your driveway when the snow starts falling.”
