Here’s some essential tips from the towing experts at Chicago Towing on what to do if your vehicle suddenly gets a flat tire.
- Pull over the car. Turn off the road, turn your car’s flasher lights on, and park the car. Ensure that there’s as much space as possible between your car and the coming traffic so that you can leave the vehicle when you need to safely.
- Stay in your car, and make all the necessary phone calls or text messages to let loved ones or people know where your location is.
- If it IS a flat tire situation and you have a spare tire, and you know how to install a new tire, go for it! We recommend using a spare tire rather than tire plugs, which generally don’t really work well.
- If you don’t have a spare tire, or are pulled over due to other issues that aren’t flat tires, contact a licensed expert vehicle recovery and towing operation like Chicago Towing. Well be on the spot in a matter of minutes to get you back on the road.
