“Motorists must ensure that their vehicles are in good condition, because in this period, the weather is always foggy, road slippery and visibility low and these conditions can lead to accidents.

“Tyres are essential to all vehicles and those that have good tyres and wipers should not say that once all these are in good condition, they can go beyond the approved speed limit.

“This is to save their lives and those of their passengers,” he said.

Tanimu said that using expired tyres and worn out wipers could lead to accident which could be avoidable if the motorists adhered strictly to warnings. (NAN)
