Can I change a tire on the highway by myself?

Changing a tire on the highway is possible but quite dangerous. It should only be done after ensuring safety and without affecting other vehicles. The steps for changing a tire on the highway are: 1. Pull over to the roadside and turn on the hazard warning lights; 2. Place a triangular warning sign behind the vehicle; 3. Retrieve the spare tire and tools; 4. Loosen the bolts one by one; 5. Use a jack to lift the car; 6. Remove the damaged tire and place it under the car; 7. Install the spare tire; 8. Lower the jack and tighten the bolts, lowering the jack until the tire touches the ground, then use a socket wrench to tighten the screws in a diagonal pattern; 9. Ensure each screw is tightened the same number of turns to maintain even pressure on all screws.
