Great news from the Vernon North Okanagan RCMP.
The local constabulary, along with colleagues from BC Highway Patrol, conducted a winter tire check on Silver Star Road Thursday morning, Dec. 21.
Approximately 250 vehicles were checked heading up to SilverStar Mountain Report.
As stated on their social media forums, officers are thrilled to say there was 100 per cent compliance with all vehicles having the properly rated tires.
Along with the right gear, motorists are reminded to have the right mindset on the roads.
鈥淚t takes more than just good winter tires to arrive without incident in winter driving conditions,鈥� said Sgt. Roberts from BC Highway Patrol. 鈥淪low down and give yourself more time and space to arrive safely.鈥�
