Experienced drivers can often sense a flat tire while driving by feeling changes in the engine noise, steering, and external factors.
Here are some signs that indicate a flat tire while the car is in motion:
– If, while driving, the driver feels the car swaying or shaking, it is likely due to a flat rear tire. If the steering wheel vibrates, it indicates a flat front tire.
– If the car suddenly shakes, bounces, and the engine roars without speeding up, and the car veers off balance, turn on your signal and pull over to the side of the road to inspect immediately.

– If, while driving, you feel the steering wheel being pulled to one side, it indicates that one of the tires is losing air pressure. If the steering wheel is both pulled and shakes, the front tire is flat; if it doesn’t shake, the rear tire is flat.
– Inexperienced drivers should pay attention to the sound of the engine to detect any abnormalities. Most importantly, it is crucial to inspect the undercarriage, and all tires before getting into the car to ensure that the tires are properly inflated and that there are no obstructions or children underneath the vehicle. This should be a top priority for every trip.
Over time, as drivers become more familiar with their vehicles, they will be able to sense any abnormalities while driving.
Additionally, experts recommend that vehicle owners invest in a separate tire pressure sensor kit if their car doesn’t already have one installed by the manufacturer.
