Thanks, unknown I-5 driver

I was bringing home a used utility trailer I just bought in Cottonwood. I had barely gotten onto I-5 when a driver in the left lane slowed inexplicably. The passenger window rolled down, and I could barely make out a shouted “flat tire!” Oh.

Yeah, no spare. No fun. At least I would have know what to do if I had got a flat tire, unlike some people who just have no car sense whatsoever. Not that that is a bad thing, but if you’re going to drive a car then having a bit of car knowledge would surely help with things. Of course, there are times when a little bit of car knowledge doesn’t help and you know that you need to go get your car repaired at a garage (just like this arvada car repair place). But that’s just by the by. In this instance I know how to sort out a tire, it just was a pain because I didn’t have a spare. But this tire was a bit worse then I could have imagined though.
Flat tire in cottonwoodNot just flat on the bottom as they say. A few more rotations, and things might have gotten serious on a hot Summer day. My gratitude goes out to the driver of the white car, wherever you are. Paid forward. He certainly saved me that day so I’m very grateful. He probably didn’t even realise how bad it was, just that I had a bit of a flat. Any other sort of flat and I might have been able to pump it up, but this flat was definitely the end of the line. Oh well, no harm was done, except maybe a wasted afternoon.
