Let's face it, a flat tire is a serious drag. With a properly stocked roadside emergency kit, however, you don't have to be stuck on the side of the road.
Let's start with a spare and jack. Always make sure your spare is in decent condition and all the parts for your jack are there. Changing a tire takes practice and can be dangerous, so make sure you've done it before. Trying to figure it out on the side of a highway won't be a fun experience.
Your roadside emergency kit should also include a few flares. These should be put out to alert other cars of where you are. Finally, putting your front windshield shield in your open trunk is a signal to other drivers that your car is disabled and you could use some help.
A well prepared roadside emergency kit can help you get back on the road and to the shop after a flat tire.
