The driving experience expert also highlighted that in the latest Department for Transport road casualty report, nearly 25per cent of collisions where a vehicle defect was reported involved tyres which were either illegal, defective or underinflated.
Mr Jones said:"Drivers shouldn't take for granted that as we start to move into spring, we should take our eyes off the state of our tyres. "In the same report published by the DfT, 22 per cent of collisions were on wet or damp roads, and we all know that April showers can come when least expected.""When looking at your tyres, there is first of all the 20p trick: if you pop a 20p coin into your tyres' tread and cannot see the outer band of the coin then your tyre depth is roadworthy.
