Driving and buying tires in Germantown

A part of Montgomery County, Germantown is the third most populated city in Maryland. Located just 28 miles to the north of the U.S. capital Washington, it is divided into two parts by one of the busiest highways in Maryland — Interstate 270. Many American and international companies chose it as a base for their headquarters, but none of the automotive or tire manufacturing facilities are located here.
Though the city’s system of public transportation is well-developed, the residents commute mostly with their private vehicles. If you are one of them, you’re definitely on the right page. This Guide has been crafted by the United Tires experts, especially for Germantown MD drivers. What tires to choose for a different season, where to shop for cheap tires, how to escape traffic — here we cover these and many other topics. Read on and enjoy the ride!

Did you know that?..

Germantown was named after a little shop set up by German immigrants

In the 1830-1840s the main local business area was concentrated around the intersection of Liberty Mill Road and Clopper Road. Though most of the descendants were Scottish and English, it was the German immigrants’ little shop, known as the German Town, that gave name to the city.

What tires do you need for Germantown MD weather?

What tires do you need for Germantown weather?
What tires do you need for Germantown weather?
Germantown has a humid subtropical climate. Summers here are hot and humid (86 °F on average in July), and winters are mild but cooler than in Washington, D.C. January is the coldest month with an average temperature of around 29 °F. Slightly colder winters here are determined by the Atlantic Seaboard Fall Line. The city gets a much high level of precipitation annually: 41 inches, in comparison to the national average of 30 inches.
These climate characteristics make the perfect tire choice obvious for Germantown drivers. High-quality all-season tires can be used here all year round. The key benefit of all-season tires is their versatility: made of a specialized rubber compound, they perform well both on hot and slightly icy and snowy road surfaces. And their tread pattern prevents aquaplaning in heavy rains and offers good grip and handling. But keep in mind that these tires are designated for mild weather conditions. Anything extreme — and we would recommend switching to a higher performance category of rubber.

DRIVERS’ GERMANTOWN GUIDE: PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Drivers’ Germantown guide: practical information
Drivers’ Germantown guide: practical information
No matter if you are a resident or a guest of Germantown, this little Driving Guide will be quite useful on the local roads! Our United Tires experts have created it for everyone who’s about to hit the road. How to avoid traffic, what driving laws not to forget, how to tint your car windows, and, of course, what tires to buy — this and other useful information can be found here. Read on and enjoy your Germantown ride!

Live traffic report

Germantown MD can have pretty bad traffic, and it’s highly advisable to avoid the usual rush hours. According to the Data USA website, on average, the locals spend 35,6 minutes commuting to work (in comparison to the national average of 26.9 minutes). Plan your daily routes wisely, and these online resources will help you do that:

Seasonal tire changeover

All-season tires are a reasonable choice for driving in Germantown all-year-round. But if you’re up for seasonal tire changeovers, new or used summer or performance tires are recommended for Germantown summers, and winter or all-season Mud and Snow tires — for driving in winters. Summer and performance tires are manufactured with stiffer rubber compounds that don’t melt on the heated road surface, and deeper grooves in the tread are great for riding in heavy rains. Winter tires, on the other hand, are made with softer rubber compounds that grip the snowy and icy road surfaces better, and the “aggressive” tread pattern is perfect for riding in snow, slush, and on ice.

Driving Laws

Keep these essential driving laws in mind, and drive safely and with peace of mind:
  • Studded tires are prohibited in Montgomery county. You cannot use them even on cold winter days
  • Non-motorized cycles have the same rights on the sidewalks as pedestrians in Germantown
  • Driver’s view cannot be obstructed: objects hanging from a rear-view mirror are prohibited by state driving regulations
  • Headlights are to be turned on during rains, at all times
  • Drivers can turn right on a red light unless there is a restrictive sign
  • Drivers can turn left from a one-way street to another one-way street unless there is a restrictive sign saying “No turn on red”
  • All motorists are to follow a 4-second rule, driving too closely to the car in front is illegal.

Window tint laws

Maryland’s window tinting laws Section 22-406 sets the requirements for vehicle window tinting in the state. Below are the most important of them.

Car window tint darkness

Sedans, SUVs, and vans’ front side windows can be tinted with films that allow at least 35% of light in. The back side and rear windows, however, can be tinted with films of any darkness.

Windshield tinting

Tinting windshield is illegal in Maryland. But a 5-inch stripe of a non-reflective film can be applied above the manufacturer's AS-1 line

Reflective films

All three vehicle types’ owners aren’t allowed to tint windows with metallic or mirrored films.
