Helpful Tips When Your Car Needs to Tow

• If in case an abrupt flat tire occurs, move the vehicle to the safe corner. This might damage more your tire, rim or wheel but it will lessen the risk of your safety
• If you are on the side of the road, don’t attempt to fix your car if you think it is crucial, let the expert or the mechanic do it for you
• If by chance you are on a highway, be as visible as possible. Warn other drivers by using reflective triangles or flares (warning device should be placed far enough away from the vehicle) raise the car’s hood, put the lightest piece of cloth or carry a flashlight as warning signs
