Tire Safety
With winter on the way your vehicle is in for some abuse over the next few months, but to make sure you get through the cold, snow-filled season people need to pay extra attention to their tires.
Officials say people should check their tire's air pressure at least once a month because the cooling temperatures cause tires to loose air.
