Can I change a flat tire myself on the highway?

[LaAdrian]

You can change the tire yourself, but you need to follow the regulations. The vehicle must be parked on the emergency lane, and warning signs should be placed as required. If a vehicle stops on the highway lane without reason, or if the vehicle can be moved but is not moved to the emergency lane or emergency parking strip when it breaks down, or if the vehicle cannot be moved but warning signs are not placed as required, it will be considered illegal parking. The methods for handling a flat tire on the highway are as follows: 1. Stay calm: If your car has a flat tire on the highway, stay calm and use engine braking to keep the car moving slowly, i.e., manual gear shifting. 2. Gradually release the accelerator: Do not suddenly take your foot off the accelerator; instead, release it slowly and gradually because the deceleration from a flat tire is very strong. 3. Do not step on the brake pedal: This could further destabilize the car, leading to a spin or rollover accident. 4. Do not jerk the steering wheel: Hold the steering wheel firmly to maintain control and avoid sudden movements. You can use intermittent braking, pressing and releasing the brake pedal rhythmically.
