AZ SILCAZ SILCMitigation – Tire Analogy:
Before starting on a road trip make sure:
• There is an inflated spare tire in trunk,
• There is a car jack in trunk,
• You have a lug nut wrench,
• You know how to change a tire, or
• You joined AAA.

AZ SILCAZ SILCResponse – Tire Analogy:
There is a flat tire as you drive:
• You pull over on the side of the road,
• You get out the spare tire, car jack and a lug nut wrench,
• You change the tire, or
• You call AAA for service.
