Where in the UK has the Most Accidents, MOT Failures & Fines Caused by Illegal or Defective Tyres?
Faulty car tyres are a serious road safety hazard that can cause vehicle problems such as longer braking distances, loss of control, and even catastrophic blowouts. Whether the problem stems from wear and tear, manufacturing defects, poor maintenance, or incorrect tyre fitting, the consequences can be life-threatening for drivers, passengers, and other road users.
Driving with faulty tyres can result in fines of up to £2,500 and three penalty points per tyre. More importantly, unsafe tyres significantly increase the risk of accidents, particularly in poor weather or high speeds.
