Knowing how to change a tyre is as vital as knowing how to jumpstart a vehicle. It’s a piece of knowledge that every car owner should possess; especially women, who are statistically more susceptible to becoming victim to road crimes such as hijacking or theft, particularly in undesirable environments.

Getting stuck in the middle of the road, while you are alone is one of life’s most frustrating offerings. Many independent female car drivers fear the safety risk of getting stuck along the road, as they are not exactly aware of how to change a tyre, forcing them to signal for help.
