He added: “He has pledged Garda support to work closely with the Association on safety issues, including National Road Safety Week. This is a huge help for tyre safety and will give us much greater impact for our retailer driven campaign.”

He continued: “We have also met with the NTDA NI and will run the week on the same dates, to have a single message on an all island Road Safety Week, which will run from the 6th -12th October this year.”
