Changing a Flat Tire If you have a flat tire while driving, stop in a safe place to change it. Drive slowly along the shoulder until you get to an exit or an area to stop that is far away from the traffic lanes.

Follow the directions for changing a tire exactly, and never get under the vehicle when it is supported only by the jack. SPARE TIRE TOOL KIT JACK 1.
