on the A5.
A high-speed blowout on the A5 is frightening, but what you do in the first few seconds keeps you safe. Resist the urge to brake hard or swerve. Ease off the accelerator, grip the wheel firmly and let the A-road speed bleed away before you steer gently towards the hard shoulder or the nearest emergency area. A burst tyre is wrecked and will need replacing, and we bring the new one to you.
Once the car is stopped off the live lane, switch on your hazards and, if it is safe, leave by the door away from traffic and wait behind the barrier. Never try to inspect or change the tyre yourself while vehicles are passing at speed. Stay clear, and let us do the work when we arrive.
Call us from your safe spot with your location and direction on A5, and we dispatch the nearest van. Our callouts run 24 hours a day, every day, and we fit the replacement at the roadside so there is no need for a tow. There is nothing to pay up front: you settle up once the new tyre is on.
- ✓Clear steps for a A-road blowout: ease off, hold the wheel, no hard braking, no swerve

- ✓Roadside replacement on the A5 with no tow, because a burst tyre cannot be safely repaired
- ✓24-hour callouts and no payment up front, so you pay once the tyre is fitted
About the A5
The road we cover.
The A5 follows the old Watling Street from London towards Holyhead, much of it fast dual carriageway across our patch. It passes Dunstable and Houghton Regis, skirts Milton Keynes and Bletchley and runs on through Atherstone, Tamworth and Cannock. It is a historic trunk road carrying steady commuter and freight traffic.
Wherever you've stopped along it, we bring a replacement to you and check the wheel, rather than have you risk the rim on a shredded tyre.

Stay safe first
Broken down on the A5?
A blowout can pull the car off line. Grip the wheel firmly, ease off the throttle, avoid braking hard, and steer gently onto the hard shoulder or an emergency area.

A5 FAQs
Burst Tyre Replacement on the A5, answered.
What are the first seconds after a blowout on the A5 supposed to look like?
Hold the wheel firmly with both hands and take your foot off the accelerator so the car slows itself. Do not brake hard and do not swerve, because either can send you out of control at A-road speed. Let the pace fall, steer smoothly onto the hard shoulder or an emergency refuge area, and switch on your hazards. Leave the car on the side away from traffic if you can and wait behind the barrier, then call us.
Why can't you just repair the burst tyre?
Because a burst is not a puncture. At speed the blowout tears the sidewall and rips the internal casing, and no patch can make that sound again. A repair would fail, possibly at speed. That is why we come to the A5 with a replacement and fit it, rather than attempt a mend that would not be safe.
Will I be left stranded, or can you sort it there and then?
We sort it where you are. The van carries a range of tyre sizes and everything needed to fit and balance one at the roadside, so in most cases there is no tow and no garage trip. Once you are safely off the A-road, we come to you, change the tyre and send you on your way.
How long will I be waiting on A5?
There is always someone to answer, because callouts run 24 hours a day, every day. Give us your location and direction of travel on A5 and we send the nearest van straight away. The exact time depends on traffic and where you are, but a blowout is urgent and we move quickly. Stay behind the barrier while you wait.
What does it cost and how do I book?
There is no charge to book and nothing to pay up front. Make an enquiry, we ring you back to confirm the price and agree a time, and you pay once the new tyre is fitted. The full price depends on the tyre your vehicle takes, and we confirm it before we set off. There is no separate callout charge for coming out onto the A-road: that is part of the job.
