Are all-season tires enough for winter safety?

(NC)—Every year many Canadians are faced with a decision to determine if it’s necessary to change their trusted all-seasons over to winter tires. Outside the province of Quebec, where winter tires have become required by law, motorists still have a choice—and it’s one that could have a big

impact on your driving safety.

Knowledge is the first step in understanding the difference between winter and all-season tires.

Goodyear Canada points out the key differences to consider: Response to Temperature: Winter tires are typically

made with a different rubber compound than allseason and summer tires, allowing them to remain softer during cold weather, especially when it’s 7°C or lower. This provides the flexibility that ultimately leads to excellent handling and traction, even in the absence of any snow or ice.

Tread Patterns: Winter tires are designed with specific tread patterns to provide excellent traction on snow and ice. These features not only help prevent drivers from getting stuck in deep snow, but also help when it is time for stop, steer and navigate safely on a variety of surfaces.

Unique Technology: The Goodyear Ultra Grip family of tires covers the winter driving needs of virtually every consumer. This line leverages innovative technology to help provide superior traction in challenging winter conditions.

Winter driving experts such as the ILR Winter

Driving School, located in Mount Albert, Ontario choose the Ultra Grip Ice WRT tires for superior performance in winter conditions.

More information is available at Goodyear retailers or online at www. goodyear.ca. www.newscanada.com

Winter smarts: Idling, block heaters and engine protection pumps needless emissions into the atmosphere.

One of the false arguments made to justify idling is that it costs money to shut

the engine down. In reality, ten seconds of idling consumes the same amount of fuel as starting the engine after shutting it down.

As for the wear and

tear factor on the battery and starter, it adds up to about $10 per year, which pales in comparison to the cost of idling.

Prolonged idling is

(NC)—One of the biggest winter myths is that the engine needs to be warmed up for several minutes before being driven

also one of the worst things the owner can do to an engine.

Excessive idling can contaminate the engine oil, which will lead to premature, and very costly, engine wear down the road. It also allows excess moisture into the exhaust system, which promotes corrosion and premature replacement.

The practice of idling with a low fuel level not only stirs up any dirt in the tank, but it also promotes the build-up of condensation in the tank, especially in colder temperatures. Keeping the tank topped up minimizes both risks. When the temperature plummets, any moisture in the fuel system will freeze. If this happens in the fuel line, the car will not start and must be thawed in a warm garage before it will restart.

A recent Canadian survey conducted by Leger Marketing found that 85% of

mechanics agreed that the top benefit of using high quality gasoline is optimized engine performance.

“Carbon deposit build-up or “engine gunk” on critical engine parts is the result of various chemical and physical processes that occur in the engine during its normal operation,” explains Jim Macias, a fuels technology manager at Shell. “With 20% more cleaning agents than before, Shell Nitrogen Enriched Gasolines protect intake valves and fuel injectors from performance-robbing gunk while you drive.”

This winter keep idling to a minimum to keep things ticking along smoothly by keeping your engine protected! www.newscanada.com

Goodyear winter tire testing at the Automotive Enviro Testing Facility in Baudette, Minnesota.

Good drivers don’t let winter take them by surprise (NC)—This year, millions of Canadians will be hitting the roads to face cold temperatures along with the snowy and icy conditions winter weather brings. These factors can not only be a nuisance, but at times very challenging, even for the most confident and experienced drivers.

To prepare families and their vehicles for the winter months ahead, here are some simple tips to help make sure you get to your destination: Traction is Key: Now is not the time to ignore your tires. Many vehicles need superior performing winter tires for optimum traction to navigate with confidence. For example, enthusiasts tell us that the Goodyear Ultra Grip family of tires covers the winter driving needs of virtually every consumer. This line leverages innovative technology to provide the most reliable traction in challenging conditions. Winter driving experts such as the ILR Winter Driving School, located in Mount Albert, Ontario, choose the Ultra Grip Ice WRT tires for superior performance in these conditions.

Feel the Pressure: As temperatures change, so does tire pressure. Tires should be inflated to the vehicle manufacturer recommendations printed on a placard on the driver’s side door jamb or in the glove box, and should be checked at least monthly.

Take the Lead Out of Your Foot: Remember, just because you have superior traction doesn’t mean you can speed in snowy and icy conditions. When approaching intersections, stop signs, turns or any area where you have to decelerate, take your foot off the gas, apply the brakes gently and give yourself a cushion in case the road is slippery.

Keep a Kit: Keep a survival kit handy. A flashlight with fresh batteries, a blanket, water bottles, cell phone charger, jumper cables, flares, a help sign, and a first aid kit will prepare you for emergency situations or unexpected breakdowns.

More information is available at local retailers or online at www.goodyear.ca.
