1. Let off the accelerator.

2. Activate your flashers. (Hazard Lights)

3. SLOWLY merge to the shoulder and stop gently.

4... you now have a flat to fix... or a tow truck to call.

Notes:

- Never hit the brake. Your newly blown rim of a tire does not have traction like a normal tire of rubber does. You can and probably will spin out.

- "Donuts" or very small tires that come with a vehicle are only intended to get you to a service shop to purchase a new tire. Driving with a "donut" for extended periods as it's a normal tire can damage your vehicle.

If while driving a tire suddenly blows out what should do?

If a tire blows out while driving, remain calm and grip the steering wheel firmly to maintain control of the vehicle. Gradually ease off the gas pedal and avoid sudden braking or sharp turns. Signal and steer the vehicle to a safe location, such as the shoulder of the road, then come to a stop. Once stopped, turn on your hazard lights and assess the situation before changing the tire or calling for assistance.
