There would be a number of reasons why a car might jerk while you are driving. Your fuel filter could be clogged, something might be wrong with your carburetor, or your fuel pump.

If a car jerks when driving what is wrong?

When a car jerks or vibrates that usually means that the air preassure in AT LAEST one of the tires is to low. Fill up air in your tires.If that still does not solve the porblem and your car jerks and drifs then you should get your wheels alligned. They are not perpendicular to the road (or flat). That also speeds up tire ware. If your car vibrates at high speeds you should get your wheels balanced. Your wheel gets rotated in a machine, and then tiny weights are added to the wheel to eliminate any heavy spots on the wheel.
