Now car safety is something that has always been important to me. Sadly, I have lost friends – the road is a dangerous place.
One time, I had just got my tyres replaced – it was snowing and I was nervous. My tyres were just borderline safe, so I thought it was about time.
(I live in the UK.. Therefore, when it snows, the whole country comes to a standstill. We are just not used to it!)
As the roads were chockablock, I decided (stupidly) to take the country roads home. As I drove around a bend, I lost control of my car and span. Nothing I did corrected the spin and my car kept spinning around and round. I was so scared!
My tyres eventually gripped and my car came to a sideways stop – about a foot away from a brick wall. If I had crashed, I wouldn’t have been able to get out of my car and I was in the middle of nowhere, alone.
I was soooo lucky that I got my tyres done!
When was the last time you got your tyres done? I’m not going to lie.. One of the main reasons I put off getting my tyres done is because I have no idea what I am doing. I once took my car to a car garage (that I won’t name..) and they tried to charge me £350 for two back tyres! I am sure you can see, the car I had was so little, that was absurd!!
Check out Point S – you literally need your number plate! They then give you the price options, you choose the centre (nearest to you, mine is only 2 miles away) and then you reserve the tyres! All done. No hidden costs or tricks!

I had to replace all but one of my tires last winter, and one needs to be replaced before winter here in Iowa (North-Center of the US. Not as snowy as Canada, but it's still bad). Thankfully, it shouldn't be an issue in a few months. Cars and drivers honestly scare me. Drivers, especially. 🙁
