Tyre safety tech pilot
An innovative tyre safety pilot study involving technology company WheelRight, Welcome Break Services and backed by Highways England on the UK’s M6 has now concluded.
WheelRight’s drive-over technology has taken nearly 155,000 readings since the pilot launched in March 2015 at Welcome Break, Keele Services. The trial was part of a year-long study into driver attitudes and tyre pressure awareness levels among car and commercial vehicle drivers in the UK.
The award-winning system provides motorists and HGV drivers with a viable solution to the headache of regular tyre pressure checks by providing motorists with a ‘drive-over’ solution that generates tangible, easy-to-read, accurate information on their tyre pressures.
