Goodyear Urge Motorists to Get to Grips with Winter Driving
By Oliver Hall
As snow and ice blanket the country, Goodyear tyres are helping motorists survive the difficult driving conditions by giving out some essential winter safety advice.
With the number of accidents rising by 267 per cent during the cold winter months, the tyres manufacturer is urging motorists to make the necessary checks in preparation for their journey.
One such measure is to consider fitting cold weather or all season tyres, which provide better traction, grip and handling on the icy road surfaces.
James Bailey, corporate communications manager at Goodyear, said: “In this weather, driving conditions can be unpredictable and dangerous.
“This is why drivers should be prepared by equipping their cars with the right tyres, making sure their vehicle is in good working condition and having helpful items on board such as a torch, warm blanket and de-icer.
“By having the right tyres and adjusting your driving style to suit the weather, motorists can significantly improve their safety on the roads and keep winter worries at bay.”
