“With your vehicle safely parked, grab the owner’s manual (it should be in the glove compartment), your jack, lug wrench and spare tire. If you have a wheel chock and hollow pipe, grab them too, along with your flashlight and a towel or blanket to kneel on. Stabilize the car for added safety by placing a wheel chock or something wedge-like under the wheel that’s diagonal to the flat”.

“Knowing how to change a tire is a necessary skill for all drivers. If you rely on a cell phone to save you in a roadside emergency, there’s always that chance you will forget to charge it, be out of range, or leave it at home. Flat tires can happen anywhere, and a cell phone is no substitute for knowing how to change a flat tire”.
