Poll: Changing a tire.

Re: Poll: Changing a tire.
I had a flat tire last Thursday night. I felt like a huge moron for not knowing how to change a tire. I had to call DH to change it for me.
Although the option was, "no bc I might break a nail." I can't say that's the reason I don't know how, LOL. I was just never taught.
After the incident last week - Dh has plans to show me how to do it.

16 read! my read shelf:
Before my dad would let me start driving on my own I had to actually take a tire off and put it back on in front of him, that way he knew that I would be able to change a tire.
I haven't done it since then. So while I know how to do it, I'm not sure that I actually would. But I gues in a pinch I could make it happen.

I can't even parallel park. DON'T JUDGE.
Other than that I am actually a really good driver and I have to say that back-up cameras and rear assist have actually made my parking a million times better.
That is why i live in the West--parallel parking is pretty much not an issue--lots every where--and the few times I have tried--FAIL.

Me either. I learned for my driving test and haven't attempted it since.
This was absolutely my upbringing! My dad was determined to have my sister & I be as self-sufficient as possible. They also made us do it in driver's ed. However, I doubt I could actually get any of the lug nuts off these days & have definitely called AAA or DH instead of doing it myself. But like you said, in a pinch I guess I could do it.
I special snowflaked this. Cause no, I don't know off the top of my head how to change a tire. My Dh or other random family member would have to come do it for me.
BUT...if there happens to be a situation where I am stranded for a long period of time and no one stopped to help or could come out to help me, I could probably google it on my phone and follow the directions. But as said, this is dire circumstances.
When I was 16, a girl friend and I drove to an away soccer game, we're like 45 minutes from home and get a flat tire. Some random rednecks helped us change it, the entire time the guy had a cigarette in his mouth and muttered about how kids should have to know how to change a tire before they can drive ...
Did I learn after that?
Nope.
Same here:)
