What to do in the first few minutes

A flat tyre doesn’t have to become a bigger problem if you stay calm. Slow down gradually, without braking sharply, and move the vehicle out of the traffic lane as soon as you can.

• Switch on your hazard lights.

• Put on your high-visibility vest before getting out.

• Signal the vehicle with approved warning devices.

• Don’t keep driving on the flat tyre: you could damage the rim and tyre beyond repair.

Can it be repaired or does the tyre need replacing?

It depends on the size and location of the damage. Small punctures in the tread can usually be repaired safely. If the damage is on the sidewall, the cut is large or you have driven a long way on a low tyre, the safest option is to replace it.

At the workshop we inspect the tyre inside and out before deciding, so you don’t pay for a replacement you don’t need or leave with a repair that isn’t safe.
