Steve Tudor, Retail Operator at Marshall of Leicester, comments:
"The Vauxhall MasterFit Winter Safety Check offers Vauxhall owners
outstanding value and peace of mind that their vehicle is ready to
face the winter months."
Marshall of Leicester is always keen to pass on their expert
advice to local motorists, and during the winter season, it's more
important than ever to stay safe whilst on the move.
Steve Tudor adds: "When faced with severe conditions, think
carefully about whether you really do need to travel. If you do
need to drive on icy or snowy roads, plan your journey and drive
very smoothly. Slow down gently by easing off the throttle and try
to avoid applying the brakes. And just in case anything does
happen, it's always worth carrying a suitable emergency kit in the
car with you."
Other top tips from Marshall of Leicester include:
• Check your car's electrical systems are all working
properly on a regular basis
• Ensure your tyres have adequate tread (1.6mm is the legal
minimum)
• Keep tyre pressures at the levels recommended in your
car's handbook
• Keep your windscreen clear and clean your windows inside
the car as well
• If your windscreen in misting up, use the air
conditioning to keep the air dry
Steve Tudor adds a final reminder to motorists: "Remember, the
speed that you can stop from is a bus length on a dry warm day, but
it can take the whole length of a football pitch on ice."
