while you’re driving, especially if you
maintain your tires properly. If air goes
out of a
tire,it’s much more likely to
leak out slowly. But if
you should ever
have a
“blowout,”
here
are
a
few tips
about
what
to
expect and
what
to
do:
If a
front
tire
fails, the flat tire will
create
a drag that pulls the vehicle
toward that side. Take your foot off the
accelerator pedal and grip the steering
wheel firmly. Steer to maintain
lane
position,
then gently brake
to
a
