1 Answers
The correct methods to handle a flat tire are: 1. Hold the steering wheel firmly with both hands and try to control the vehicle; 2. Pay attention to the vehicles behind, brake slowly, and move away from the main road; 3. Avoid emergency braking to prevent the vehicle from spinning or overturning due to uneven braking force; 4. Place the triangular warning sign on the road behind the vehicle when parked; 5. Replace the spare tire as soon as possible. Methods to prevent flat tires include: 1. Regularly check the tire pressure of both the tires and the spare tire to ensure it is normal; 2. During long-distance driving or in hot weather, if the tire pressure is too high, choose a shady place to rest and wait for the tire pressure to return to normal before driving; 3. Rotate the tires to ensure even wear; 4. Promptly remove debris such as stones, glass, or nails embedded in the tire surface; 5. Replace tires that are beyond their service life or show signs of aging in a timely manner.
