A Yorkshire NHS Trust has been told it could save almost ?22,000 per year on fuel by running its company car fleet with the correct tyre pressures.
The finding was made at a Michelin event held by the South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust to test the pressures and condition of employees? tyres.
Results from the 75 cars tested showed that 49% of tyres were at the correct pressure ? better than the national average of 28% ? and a further 24% of tyres were classed as ?acceptable?, meaning they were up to 7psi under-inflated.
