Ever tried to change a tyre in the rain?

Changing a flat tyre can be difficult, but changing a flat tyre in the rain or in adverse weather can be even more difficult. Changing a tyre in ideal conditions is sometimes tricky due to over tightened lug nuts and heavy parts, but add in rain or snow and things can get much more difficult. Changing a tyre in the rain is not much more difficult than changing a tyre when it’s not raining, but you must be mindful of other drivers. When it rains the roads become slippery and hazardous, which can lead to other vehicles hitting your vehicle while you are changing the tyre. Changing a tyre in the snow can also be difficult because it is difficult to find solid ground to lift up the vehicle in order to remove the flat tyre. Often you have to find a board or piece of wood to use as a flat surface.
