Petition Spare Tyres Should Be Part Of An MOT

More details

Increasingly car manufacturers are not supplying new cars with Spare Tyres and replacing them with sealant gel.

This gel only works under ideal conditions and isn't suitable for a large number or punctures. This means in the event of a puncture you have to call out the breakdown services.

Waiting for a patrol to arrive can take up to 2 hours leaving a car in potential danger on the side of the road, causing a hazard and inconvenience to other road users.

I believe this is dangerous and Spare tyres should be compulsory.
