This post is a bit of a lecture one! Me and my mate were driving around as we were very bored.We herd a strange noise so decided to turn onto a quite road to stop.On the way down the road BANG! my first thought was We have been shot.Then the steering pulled to the left and we went to look at the car which was now tilting to one side.We got the parents out who then brought a jack with them.Once we took the tyre off we saw that the suspension had come off or was loose.The spike at the end of the coil had punctured the tyre.We were just thinking in the hours it took for the breakdown service to come about how lucky we were it wasnt on a main rd or motorway where u are going 50mph+.Lesson of this is check your suspension now and then.Back to today on duty was excellent.No casualtys but i had the radio so that was rather entertaining.
The Guilty Tyre.Look at the tear in the sidewall
You wait hours for one of these in these times.
