The Traffic Management Centre (TMC) recommends that Moscow motorists wait to change their winter tires to summer ones. Despite the warm days, the air temperature at night and in the morning still drops below zero, and black ice may form. Driving on summer tires in such weather is unsafe.
“We strongly recommend that drivers switch from winter to summer tires only when the average daily temperature is above five to six degrees Celsius. This will help make your trips safer and avoid accidents on the road,” said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry
The characteristics of winter and summer tires differ significantly. The safety of the driver and other road users depends on their correct use. Summer tires become hard at low temperatures, and their grip on the asphalt deteriorates. They improve the car’s handling in warm weather when they become soft. Winter tires were developed specifically for cold weather. They remain elastic even at temperatures below zero degrees and provide reliable grip on the asphalt.
Specialists from the Moscow Traffic Management Center urge Moscow motorists to closely monitor the weather forecast and change tires in a timely manner.
