Tyresafe launches campaign to promote tyre checks
ERJ staff report (DS)
London -- Tyresafe, the UK tyre industry group has launched a video on tread wear awareness in time for October's Tyre Safety Month
“Checking that your car's tyres have adequate tread depth is extremely simple and easy,†explains Stuart Jackson, chairman, TyreSafe. “As our two 'mechanics' demonstrate in the campaign movie, you don't need any specialist tools or knowledge. A simple 20p coin and a few minutes is all it takes. With such potentially devastating and life-changing consequences, drivers should ask themselves if they can afford not to take the test?â€
The video features two 7 year-old 'mechanics' Kyanne and Finlay who urge drivers to take the 20p test in order to stay safe and legal.
