Poor Tyre As A Risk Factor

Studies have shown that bald tyres are a risk factor for fatal accidents

. About 70 percent of car accidents occur in bad weather conditions, such as watery, slushy, snowy or icy roads.

- People do not understand it enough that the bad weather grip is of paramount importance. Driving ability is not a problem, but surprisingly different weather conditions are. If our roads were icy all year around, it is unlikely that furthermore accidents would happen because people would get used to a constant and steady low level of friction. Now, the friction level variability surprises motorists and you dont know how to adjust your speed to prevailing conditions, Morri said.

How to choose your car tyres?

When choosing a suitable tyre (in Finnish: rengas) for your car, you should start with your own awareness of the driving experience. If you are an inexperienced driver, Morri recommends studded tyres.

A winter tyre study shows that the majority of the Finnish population is of the opinion that studded tyres are a better option for the inexperienced drivers.

- An experienced driver can choose between studded winter tyres, which require more anticipation for the driver, observance in intervals, and, of course, the equipment of new cars also improves the safety in the changing weather conditions. Anyway motorists can significantly affect the safety of the tyres in their own driving, for example, just by anticipating situations and driving more patiently.

The non-studded tyre is not an all-year tyre

Non-studded tyres are not to be used all-year around. YouGov Finlands study indicates that every fourth Finn thinks that the non-studded tyre can be used all-year around.

- The non-studded tyres especially designed for Nordic regions are not intended for use all-year around. A warm road surface wears out the tyre and hence is not the ultimate tyre as a whole in summer driving conditions, and especially not intended for the Northern regions or Central European roads. The winter tyres designed for Central European roads are not the safest on Nordic winter road, Matti Morri ends.
