I learned how to change a tire/tyre by watching my father change one when I was 6 or 7 years old.Same,taught mine after I taught them how to change a tyre, amazing how many people call for roadside assistance to change a tyre, some basics things can help people stay alive
I remembered which compartment the jack was stashed in the back of my SUV.
And yet - that simple, skinny little hand jack does sweet fuck all when you need to actually change a tire.
Thank goodness for the kindness of strangers who will stop and help when they see a single female doing their best on the side of the road.
If not for the sheriff's deputy and random mechanic that both stopped to assist that hot summer day in 2018, I am pretty sure I would still be on the side of the road saying, "Just once more and we'll have it."
If I had an engineering degree, I would make my millions by creating a pocket-sized hydraulic jack that fits in the back of a car without taking up any more room than a spare tire/tyre would.
Because surely in this day and age we have the technology and know-how to make that happen!!
*stamps foot for emphasis*
And although my jack would be in basic matte black, I would even insist that we make a model in pink ...with glitter!! IYKYK
