Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

In the event of a flat tire or blowout, the priority is to maintain control of the vehicle by gripping the steering wheel firmly and avoiding abrupt braking. You must immobilize the vehicle as soon as possible in a safe place, off the roadway and the drivable shoulder if possible, complying with stopping and parking regulations. Continuing to drive (even slowly) will irreparably damage the rim and compromise stability, while abandoning the vehicle on the road creates a highly dangerous obstacle for traffic.
