Driving and the Weather – Safety Tips from Green Bay Tire in Thornhill



We at Green Bay Tire in Thornhill want our customers and community to stay as safe as they can, especially when behind the wheel of a vehicle. One of the best ways to stay safe is to make sure that your driving is appropriate to the weather conditions.

Don’t speed. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that speeding in rain or slow is extremely dangerous. Slick roads impede your ability to brake as swiftly as you might be able to on a dry road and the inability to stop when you want to or mean to can make an accident unavoidable.

Also, here at Green Bay Tire in Thornhill, we think it is important to remember to be careful when driving through water on the roadway. If you see a puddle in the roadway, you should slow down and just roll through it. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that you should try not to be pressing the brakes or the gas very hard when you do this, and make sure you keep your steering wheel steady and try not to jerk it.

Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that it’s easy to hydroplane and lose control of your car speeding along down wet roads. Also keep in mind that you may not have any idea how deep a puddle is and that water can collect quickly.

If a roadway looks flooded or washed out, you should not try to pass over that portion of the roadway. You can very quickly find yourself in a dangerous situation that you are unable to get out of. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill advises you to remember that cars will protect you from the rain, but none of them are made to be amphibious vehicles.

Follow the same rules in the snow. Don’t speed. Drive carefully and be aware of ice and slush to keep from losing control of your vehicle and having an accident.

We here at Green Bay Tire in Thornhill believe in the importance of practicing safe driving habits to protect not only our customers, but our entire community from avoidable accidents.

Changing Your Tires – Reminders About Spares from Green Bay Tire in Thornhill



No one likes a flat tire, but they do happen, and often at somewhere less convenient than Green Bay Tire in Thornhill. Changing a tire is not too hard and often times you can find instructions for changing the tires on your car in its manual. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that it is always a good idea to practice using your jack and changing your tires at least once, so that you’re not left on the roadside trying to figure out how to safely and correctly use the tools needed to get your tire replaced.

Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that some people have an actual spare tire that is made to the same specs as the tires already on their car. You’ll usually find this with trucks and SUVs due to their size. Many small and mid-size cars have a donut stored somewhere in the truck in the case that a tire is blown. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that donuts are safe to drive on, but they’re not meant to be used for any considerable time or distance.

If you have a donut, you’ll notice that it is smaller than the other tires on your car. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that if you are going to use the donut to replace the front tires, replace the front tire with a rear tire and replace the rear tire with the donut. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that since most mid-size vehicles have front wheel drive, you want to make sure the tires are on where you steer the car.

If you keep a spare tire in your truck or SUV, be sure to have it checked when you have the car’s tires serviced. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that you wouldn’t want to be stuck with a flat only to find your spare tire with low air pressure from being stored for a long time.

Watch Out For Animals! – Green Bay Tire in Thornhill Reminds Drivers to Watch for Wildlife



We here at Green Bay Tire in Thornhill know that Ontario is full of a wide range of majestic wildlife. While we prefer to see them safely in their natural habitat or in a zoo, wild animals have a terrible habit of appearing suddenly on the roadways in front of vehicles.

Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that there are several important things to remember here. First, the likelihood that a deer or a moose is going to suddenly pop up while you’re pulling out of the Starbucks parking lot is slim.  Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that you’re a lot more likely to see animals in the roadway at between dusk and dawn and they are much more likely to be at the edge of wooded area. Take care when you’re driving past wooded areas at night, or close to dusk and dawn.

Also remember that speed kills. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that speed is your enemy during any type of collision. The faster you are going in your car, the less time you have to react to something that appears in the road. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that you don’t want to hit a deer or a moose going 60 MPH because that’s as slow as you could get your speed as you tried to break going 80 MPH down the road.

Also be aware of your surroundings. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that it’s easy enough to turn what could’ve been a collision with no injuries into a collision with injuries. Many people swerve to avoid an animal that they are going to collide with in the road. Often they do manage to avoid the animal, but not the trees by the roadside. A deer is not going to stay stationary when you hit it, a 25 year old pine tree will. Green Bay Tire in Thornhill knows that that is definitely not something you want to test out in a collision.

We here at Green Bay Tire in Thornhill want our customers and community to stay safe while in their vehicles. Fixing a vehicle is much easier and cheaper than fixing a person. Always keep that in mind when you’re in your car.

Even the safest and most alert driver can encounter an unavoidable collision, there’s no time to grab your seatbelt in the middle of a collision.
