Safe Tyres Save Lives

30 Posted: 30th Oct 2013
  • The Highways Agency have teamed up with TyreSafe to create a joint campaign encouraging drivers to make monthly checks to their tyre pressures. By driving with correctly inflated tyres, it helps them to last longer as well as helping to reduce fuel bills. Most importantly, it reduces the risk of tyres related accidents. A video posted on the Highway Agency's YouTube channel (see right) shows a shocking high speed lorry tyre failure, highlighting the real dangers of not keeping your tyres correctly inflated. The Agency's log shows that 3,852 breakdowns on its network between April and June 2013 were tyre related. Don't take the risk - safe tyres save lives!
