Safety and driving tips

As well as carrying a winter emergency kit, pack some other little extras to make life easier.

Now more than ever, environmental awareness is a top priority. This can be seen in the increasing amount of environmentally friendly cars.

Car holidays offer a lot of freedom. However, they must also be planned. Whether in summer or winter: You will be well prepared with our tips.

Winter holidays are great fun. So the sooner you get there, the sooner you’ll start to enjoy yourself.

If you fit tyres designed for rain like all of our Uniroyal tyres, you should be able to enjoy driving in wet conditions.

There are few things more frightening for drivers than to suddenly face a blanket of fog. 

Snow is great fun. Snowball fights, snowmen, sledging – it brings out the child in all of us.

Snow chains can be fitted to most cars, SUVs and trucks. They greatly improve traction on snow and ice and can be a temporary solution when fitted over summer tyres.

There’s a good reason why ice skating and ice hockey are so popular – it’s great fun to glide across ice at speed. 

If there’s been a snow dump while your vehicle’s been parked, or the tyres you’ve fitted simply weren’t up to the job and you’ve veered off the road, you may find yourself stuck in snow. 

However good your driving, things can go wrong. And the last thing you need is to be unprepared. 

It doesn’t take a lot of water to freeze your car locks but, when it happens, it can create a lot of problems. 

If you want to carry on enjoying driving all year round, you need to think about preparing your car for winter.
