If you get a flat tyre while driving, the first thing to do is move your vehicle somewhere safe if possible and turn on your hazard lights. Avoid continuing to drive on a completely flat tyre, as it can damage the wheel and make the situation more dangerous.

If you don’t have a spare tyre or the damage can’t be repaired safely, an emergency tyre replacement service can be a practical option. A mobile tyre technician can come to your location, inspect the tyre and replace it on the spot if they have a suitable tyre available.

It’s worth having your tyre size and vehicle details ready when calling, as this can help the technician bring the correct replacement. For example, Back2RoadTyres provides mobile tyre assistance, which can be useful when you’re stuck away from a tyre shop.

The main thing is to prioritise your safety rather than trying to drive the car on a damaged tyre.
