WASHINGTON, D.C. (Feb. 8, 2022) – The U.S. Tire Manufacturers Association (USTMA) today announced it will promote its yearly consumer awareness campaign, National Tire Safety Week, on June 27-July 3, 2022. This annual initiative educates motorists about tire care, safety and maintenance as an important part of road safety.

“USTMA highlights the importance of tire care and safety all year long, but during National Tire Safety Week, we join with our member companies and other partners to amplify this critical theme, especially as drivers embark on the summer travel season,” said Anne Forristall Luke, president and CEO of USTMA. “We have seen recent traffic statistics that have highlighted troubling increases in roadway accident trends, especially since the start of the pandemic. As the only equipment on a car that touches the road, we want to make sure that tires are at the top of drivers’ vehicle safety checklists, especially during the busiest travel season.”

U.S. tire manufacturers recommend drivers check their tire pressure monthly, regularly check their tire tread depth and ensure their tires are rotated and properly aligned. Proper maintenance and periodic inspections by a tire service professional are essential for optimum performance and service life of tires.

About

The impact of anthropogenic hazards disrupts the normal life of people, causes accidents leading to emergency situations (ES) and disasters, including environmental ones. At present, an alarming tendency has been formed to increase the destructive impact of hazardous natural phenomena and processes. Despite the specifics of situations in specific countries and regions, they are due to population growth, the concentration of it and material wealth in relatively limited areas, as well as a change in the nature of the genesis of natural disasters.

This leads to an increase in the uncertainty of information about the functioning of the technosphere, the entropy of the processes occurring in it, to the risk of technological disasters - large-scale accidents in industry, energy, transport, pollution of the biosphere with highly toxic and radioactive waste products that threaten the health of millions of people.
