Watch that Tread Depth

We now be all feeling that the winter is about to give way to spring. However with February rain and April showers to come you still need good Tread on those tyres. Objective research demonstrates that a Ford Focus with 3mm of tread stops 40 meters sooner than one at the legal limit of 1.6mm when breaking from 70MPH on a wet surface. In fact the one with 1.6 was still travelling at 50MPH when the one with 3mm stopped. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jHmZcYACtI
