If a front tire goes flat, your vehicle will pull strongly to which side?

When a front tire goes flat, the vehicle will pull strongly to the side that has the flat tire. This occurs because the flat tire is unable to maintain the same level of traction and pressure as the inflated tire. As the vehicle moves forward, the inflated tire on the opposite side continues to provide traction, while the flat tire loses its ability to steer the vehicle effectively. The difference in traction causes the vehicle to veer toward the side with the flat tire.

Understanding this concept is crucial for safe driving. When experiencing a flat, you may need to counter-steer to maintain control until you can stop safely. This knowledge helps drivers respond appropriately in emergency situations to prevent losing control of the vehicle.
