Don't Get Left Out In The Cold
To make sure you don’t get caught out this winter, follow
Halfords advice to help you stay safe and breakdown free this
winter:
- Tyres – Check all tyres for condition,
pressure and tread depth. It is recommended that you have at
least 3mm of tread for winter motoring. The minimum legal limit
is 1.6mm over ¾ of the width of the tyre. You should
inflate tyres to the pressure recommended by the manufacturer.
- Lights – Check that all bulbs are
working. Brake lights, fog lights, main beam and indicators
are all as important as your headlights. Something as simple
as a Quick Reaction (QR) high intensity rear bulb illuminates
faster for greater safety. QR Brake lights can give up to 3m
more stopping distance based on travelling speeds of 62mph
and means drivers behind can react up to 50% quicker. Also
consider carrying a spare bulb kit for your car, from as little
as £6.99. It is a legal requirement in countries such
as France and is a really good idea.
- Visibility – Through the winter month’s
dazzle from the low sun can be a particular issue and with
the additional problem of dirt, rain and snow causing reduced
vision. Improve visibility significantly by ensuring the windscreen
is clean inside and out, check windscreen wipers are fully
functioning and replace if necessary, and ensure your windscreen,
windows and mirrors are clear of snow, ice and steam. Make
sure you have screen wash in your washer bottle as bright sunshine
really makes for poor visibility.
- Battery - Lights, heaters and windscreen
wipers put high demands on the car battery, especially if the
car is driven mainly in dark rush-hour trips. Get your battery
checked at Halfords as part of the free Five Point Car Health
Check being offered and keep your car on the move this winter.
Batteries are available from Halfords from as little as £39.99
and are all fully charged and ready to fit. Halfords not only
offer a "We Fit" service but also provide a "We
Recycle" facility. If you purchase and recycle your battery
at Halfords you will receive a free £2 voucher!
- Expect the unexpected and stay alert - No
matter what precautions you take, driving in the dark reduces
visibility and requires more concentration. Ensure you are
fit to drive and are not distracted by other passengers or
a mobile phone. Stay alert and if you are driving long distances
make sure you take breaks, pulling over in safe areas. Consider
your route before travelling and check local and regional weather
forecasts and traffic news.
