Keep Your Tires Properly Inflated

Keep Your Tires Properly Inflated

Panama City residents are reminded of the importance of maintaining proper tire inflation for vehicle safety and fuel efficiency. With fluctuating temperatures common in our area, tire pressure can change, impacting handling and increasing the risk of blowouts.

Local automotive experts suggest checking tire pressure at least once a month, or before long trips. The recommended pressure for your vehicle can typically be found on a sticker inside the driver's side door jamb or in the owner's manual. Under-inflated tires can lead to increased fuel consumption and uneven tire wear, costing drivers more money in the long run.

Ensuring tires are correctly inflated is a simple, yet effective, step every driver can take to enhance road safety for themselves and others on Panama City's streets, from Thomas Drive to 23rd Street and the historic downtown.
