What would it be worth to ensure you, your staff or others are not hurt in
a motor accident?

Did you know that?

  • If your vehicle does not have safe brakes you can be fined £2,500 and disqualified.
  • Saying that you thought you had maintained the braking system by servicing your vehicle at the appropriate service intervals is not an acceptable defence.
  • Brake fluid absorbs air and moisture over time resulting in inefficient braking and eventually brake failure.
  • Tyres with 3mm tread depth provide 25% better performance and 25 feet less stopping distance in the wet than tyres operating with minimum legal tread depth of 1.6mm.
  • A braking system comprises of several components: discs, pads, servo, hoses, brake fluid etc. All or any can fail.
  • With the introduction of Corporate Manslaughter, Corporate Homicide and Health & Safety Legislation, your duty of care to your employees and others could cost you 10% of your average annual turnover or more if there are aggravating factors.
