As a commercial driver, your work is more than just a job — it’s who you are. You move the world forward, mile after mile, no matter the conditions. You don't get to choose when the weather changes. You don't get to say, “I'll wait until it clears up.” You keep going.
Spring is finally here. Although it is officially spring, the winter season would not go quietly. The colder weather truly seems to be behind us as streets are swept clean, motorcycles take to the roads and classic cars come out of storage. During this time of the year there is also a focus by many towns and cities to start spring maintenance on their equipment and vehicles.

We all know the feeling when tires lose grip, and the vehicle starts skidding. Controlled skidding in a go-kart could be fun, but a heavy vehicle unexpectedly skidding on a road could cause a very dangerous situation. The skidding is due to the vehicle losing road grip and obviously, this has to do with tires and road surface and how the friction is affected.
Embrace the magic of the season with our warmest Merry Christmas wishes for 2024!
