If a tire goes flat while you are driving:
1.
Take your  foot off  the accelerator
pedal  and let  the  car  slow  down
while driving straight ahead. Do not
apply the brakes immediately or at-
tempt to pull off the road as this may
cause a  loss of control. When  the
car has slowed to such a speed that
it is  safe to do  so, brake  carefully
and pull off  the road. Drive off  the
road as far as possible and park on
firm, level  ground. If you  are on a
divided highway, do not park in the
median area between the two traffic
lanes.
