It is not recommended to drive with a flat tyre as it could damage the rim of the wheel. It is best to pull away onto a quiet street, away from oncoming traffic and call for help.

To ease the frustration and stress when you are locked out of the car you can:

• Try all car doors, windows and the boot for an entry
• Ask family or friends to bring you a spare key.

But the most efficient solution is to call emergency roadside assist.

It is recommended that car batteries are changed every few years, but batteries can often go flat faster if you:

• Leave headlights on when the car isn’t running
• Leave the radio on
• Constantly running the air conditioner
• Not starting the car for long periods of time

If your car battery has gone flat, you can attempt to jump start it with jumper cables. But you must be experienced in using jumper cables and you also need the help of another car. The safest option is to call for roadside assistance and let the professionals help you out safely.

• Leave headlights on when the car isn’t running
• Leave the radio on
• Constantly running the air conditioner
• Not starting the car for long periods of time

There are several symptoms that indicate your car battery is about to go flat. If you notice any of the following signs you should change your car battery immediately to avoid a roadside emergency:

• Slow engine start
• Dim headlights
• Check engine lights turns on
• Lack of dome light
