What Should You Do If You Have a Flat Tyre?
If you notice a puncture or sudden loss of tyre pressure while driving, the first priority is getting yourself and other passengers somewhere safe.
If it is safe to do so:
- Slow down gradually
- Avoid sudden steering or braking
- Move to a safe location away from moving traffic
- Switch on your hazard lights
- Keep passengers away from the road
- Do not continue driving on a severely damaged tyre
- Contact roadside assistance if the vehicle cannot safely continue
If you are stopped in a dangerous position or there is an immediate risk to people, contact the emergency services first.
GOOD TO KNOW
Common Causes of a Flat Tyre
A flat tyre can happen for different reasons. Some common causes include:
Puncture
A nail, screw, glass or another sharp object can penetrate the tyre and cause air to escape.
Damaged Sidewall
Impact with a kerb, pothole or another object can damage the tyre sidewall.
Loss of Air Pressure
A tyre may gradually lose pressure because of a slow puncture, valve issue or other problem.
Pothole Damage
A significant pothole can damage a tyre or wheel and may result in a sudden loss of pressure.
Worn Tyre
A heavily worn tyre may be more vulnerable to damage and may no longer provide safe road contact.
Valve Problem
A damaged or faulty valve can also contribute to loss of tyre pressure.
The exact cause is not always obvious from the roadside, so avoid assuming that simply adding air has solved the problem if the tyre continues to lose pressure.
AT A GLANCE
Flat Tyre Assistance in Birmingham
A flat tyre can happen outside your home, at work or while travelling through Birmingham.
A.A.D Transport & Recovery provides 24/7 recovery support across Birmingham and surrounding areas.
You may need assistance if:
When contacting the recovery team, provide your location and explain the condition of the tyre.
- Your tyre has completely deflated
- You have a puncture
- The tyre has visible damage
- You have no usable spare
- The spare tyre is also damaged or unsuitable
- The vehicle cannot safely be driven
- You are unsure whether the tyre is safe
- A tyre problem has left you stranded
Puncture Assistance Birmingham
A puncture does not always mean the same thing.
Some punctures may be repairable, while other tyre damage may make the tyre unsuitable for further use. Sidewall damage, severe impact damage or a badly damaged tyre may require a replacement tyre or vehicle recovery rather than a simple repair.
For this reason, do not continue driving simply because the vehicle still appears to move.
If you are unsure about the condition of your tyre, stop in a safe location and seek appropriate assistance.
HOW IT WORKS
Can You Drive on a Flat Tyre?
Driving on a completely flat tyre is generally not advisable because it can cause further damage to the tyre and potentially the wheel.
Continuing to drive can also affect the vehicle’s handling and braking.
01
Slow down safely.
02
Avoid sudden movements.
03
Stop somewhere safe.
04
Check the situation only if it is safe to do so.
05
Contact roadside assistance if the vehicle cannot safely continue.
GOOD TO KNOW
What If Your Car Has No Spare Tyre?
Many modern vehicles do not carry a traditional spare wheel. Instead, they may have a tyre repair kit, compressor or another temporary solution.
Your vehicle make and model
Your current location
Which tyre is affected
Whether the tyre is completely flat
Whether you have a spare
Whether the vehicle can be moved safely
If you do not have a usable spare tyre, you may need roadside assistance when a puncture occurs.
A.A.D Transport & Recovery can discuss your situation and determine whether roadside assistance or vehicle recovery is the more appropriate option.
Tell the team:
Tyre Damage After a Pothole or Kerb Impact
Not every tyre problem is caused by a puncture.
A pothole or kerb impact can potentially cause damage to:
- The tyre tread
- Tyre sidewall
- Wheel rim
- Wheel alignment
- Suspension components
If you have hit a pothole or kerb and the vehicle subsequently feels different, pulls to one side or develops a flat tyre, it may be safer to stop and have the vehicle checked rather than continuing your journey.
If the vehicle cannot safely move, recovery may be required.
KEY SITUATIONS
Flat Tyre vs Slow Puncture
A sudden flat tyre is easy to notice, but some punctures develop gradually.
Sudden Flat
The tyre loses a significant amount of pressure quickly, potentially leaving the vehicle difficult or unsafe to drive.
Slow Puncture
The tyre loses air gradually. You may notice that the same tyre needs regular inflation or that the tyre-pressure warning light keeps appearing. A slow puncture should not simply be ignored. Repeated pressure loss can indicate a tyre or valve problem that needs attention.
If the tyre becomes too low to drive safely, arrange roadside assistance rather than continuing on it.
Tyre Pressure Warning Light
Modern vehicles may display a tyre-pressure warning when one or more tyres have lost pressure.
If the warning appears:
- Check the tyre pressures when it is safe to do so
- Look for visible tyre damage
- Avoid driving on a visibly flat tyre
- Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s guidance
- Seek assistance if you are unsure whether the tyre is safe
A warning light does not necessarily mean the tyre is punctured, but it should not be ignored.
GOOD TO KNOW
What Information Should You Give When Calling?

01
Your Location
Tell us where the vehicle is currently stranded.
02

03
Tyre Position
Tell us whether the problem is with the front or rear tyre and which side of the vehicle.

05

This information helps establish what type of roadside support may be required.
