TyreSafe, the not for profit tyre industry safety organisation, has welcomed online retailer Blackcircles as its latest member.

As a supporter, Blackcircles.com will assist TyreSafe in a wide range of campaigns aimed at raising the awareness of correct tyre maintenance.

The online retailer's decision to join is yet another clear indication that TyreSafe is making a real difference to making the country's roads a safer place and that its message is being heard by all sectors within the automotive industry, as well as car drivers.

Since TyreSafe started, the number of people killed or seriously injured each year in a tyre related incident has reduced by 38%.
