October - Tyre Safety Month - Monday 13 October 2008
Motorists are being advised to ensure their tyres are at the correct pressure
Tyres which are under pressure can increase fuel consumption, reduce the tyres effective life and have a negative impact on road safety.
By running tyres at just 80 percent of the recommended pressure, motorists can expect tyre life to be reduced to around 75 percent. If the pressure falls to 60 percent, motorists can expect to achieve just 35 percent of the potential mileage from the tyre. "Checking tyre pressure is a straightforward procedure, yet many drivers simply don't make time for it," reported Rob Beddis, The chairman for TyreSafe, the UK's leading tyre safety organisation.
