Question

While driving on a highway, your HMMWV starts to pull to one side. You stop and check your tires – one tire is going flat. There is no spare, but the affected tire has a runflat device installed, and you are only 5 miles from the motor pool. What is your maximum allowable speed when driving with one flat tire?

Answer 1

Answer:

30 miles people hour (mph)

Explanation:

The maximum speed for one flat tyre is 30mph, for both tyres it is 20 mph and for two tyres on the same side it is 30mph. When a tyre is punctured driving at high speed should be avoided and not too long distance should be covered to avoid further accident and for the safety of other vehicles. Speed limit and distance for flat tires should be strictly followed.
