Snow density in repair shops: Cost of accidents reaches 500 thousand liras

There is also intense workload at the Atatürk Automotive Industrial Site in Maslak. There is a 35-40 percent increase in accident rates due to icing.

For vehicles with minimal damage, parts prices can reach 70-80 thousand liras. For severely damaged wrecked vehicles, costs can reach 400-500 thousand liras.

While it is stated that traffic accidents occur because winter tires are not used, citizens are warned about icing.

Bodywork experts state that accidents generally occur from the front or on curves.

Experts state that citizens install snow tires on the front of front-wheel drive vehicles due to unconsciousness, and that accidents occur when snow tires are not installed on the rear tire.

Experts say that when buying winter tires, the tread depth should not fall below five millimeters and that the tires should be used for a maximum of four years.
