Question 4328
If you are driving on a temporary spare tire because you have had a flat tire, what should you keep in mind?
- It is recommended that you drive at a maximum speed of 80 kilometers per hour.
- You must not travel more than 80 kilometers on that tire.
- You must not drive faster than 50 kilometers per hour.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: It is recommended that you drive at a maximum speed of 80 kilometers per hour.
A temporary spare tire has a maximum speed set by its manufacturer, usually 80 km/h. That 80 is a speed; the distance you can travel on it is usually around 200 km. Its speed limit is not usually 50 km/h either. In the image, the passenger car’s front tire is a temporary spare with a black rim.
