WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU GET A FLAT TIRE

Getting a flat tire can be stressful, especially if it happens unexpectedly. The first thing to do is stay calm and pull over to a safe location as soon as possible. Avoid driving on a flat tire, as this can cause serious damage to the wheel and suspension.

If you have a spare and know how to change it safely, that can help you get back on the road temporarily. However, not all flats require a full replacement. Many punctures can be repaired quickly if the damage is minor and located in the right area of the tire.

After a flat, it’s important to have the tire inspected by professionals. Driving on a damaged tire, even after reinflating it, can be dangerous.
