A survey carried out by car supermarket Motorpoint indicates a healthy level of support for mandatory winter tires in the U.K.
More than 1,400 people responded to the online study and 46% expressed support for the introduction of legislation that would compel motorists to fit winter tires. Commenting on the subject, Motorpoint managing director David Shelton said “while government legislation may be a step too far at present, given the shocking state of our roads during the recent bad weather, winter tires could be a sound investment for many people in the future.” (Tyres & Accessories)
