Tyre Safety Matters.
Check your tyres before you drive.
Your tyres are all that stand between you and potentially life-threatening situations on the road.
To ensure your safety, it is essential to keep them correctly inflated and replace them when worn
or damaged.
Worn tyres significantly increase your stopping distance in the wet while underinflated tyres
consume more fuel, have a reduced lifespan and seriously compromise the handling of your vehicle.
Three Tips for Safer Tyres
1. Check your tread depth and replace worn tyres well in time.
2. Check your tyre pressure at least once a month.
3. Check for damage and irregular wear.
Bridgestone Europe continues its commitment to the European Road Safety Charter, the European
Commission's road safety initiative with the overall objective to reduce annual road fatalities
in Europe by a further 25.000. As a signatory to the Charter and through its targeted activities
Bridgestone presents itself as a European road safety role model. In the pursuit of these objectives,
we aim to conduct at least 30.000 tyre checks.
