This is the second instalment of our 2-part podcast for Tyre Safety Month, where I chat to Stuart Lovatt, Chair of the road safety charity, TyreSafe.
In the previous episode we looked at:· The number of tyre-related incidents and their consequences.· The results of this year’s survey looking at the legality of tyres at thepoint of replacement· The specific tyre safety issues businesses need to look at for eachvehicle type including trucks and vans.
In this episode we continue that, looking at company cars and grey fleet, including the emerging concern regarding tyre safety on electric vehicles, and the safety implications of grey fleet drivers opting for part-worn second-hand replacement tyres to save money. We also discuss the key messages and resources that are part of this October’s Tyre Safety Month campaign.
