Making a difference during ember months

In this last quarter of the year – October to December 2016, the Standards Organisation of Nigeria, SON, will be promoting a special publication on passengers’ vehicle tyres, as a public service initiative to help prevent accidents on Nigerian roads.

The initiative is in form of public enlightenment on the critical issues surrounding tyres that are commonly responsible for tyre outburst (and associated dangers) that cause accidents.
