Bobby was changing a tyre for a friend one morning and happened to have one last thought on this see and be seen topic as it applies to staying safe on the roads.
When you break down or get a flat, you’re in an especially vulnerable place. Sometimes you don’t get your car all the way off the road (this happened to Bobby before with a seized gearbox), it’s usually on a busy road (Murphy’s law) and you get the moer in. That’s all a recipe for disaster.
So koel af, do the first most important thing, which is make sure oncoming cars can see you clearly. A reflective hazard triangle is the accepted measure here, as well as your hazard lights. Safely home.
