VEHICLES WITHOUT WINTER TIRES WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE ON THE ROAD

The application, initiated to prevent vehicles without winter tires from blocking the road and causing inconvenience to people, aims to prevent road closures in snowy weather.

Teams will conduct stricter inspections on vehicles that set out without precautions and preparations, and will not allow vehicles that are not suitable for winter conditions and do not have winter tires to continue on the road.

PAY ATTENTION TO THE MANUFACTURING DATE WHEN BUYING TIRES

Winter tires provide better grip and high safety on wet, snowy, and muddy surfaces at temperatures below 7 degrees compared to summer tires.

Moreover, drivers need to check the manufacturing dates when purchasing tires for their vehicles. Even if the tires have not been used, they have a certain shelf life. Tires that have been stored lose their properties and do not maintain balance.
