I'm curious how. This was a one lane curvy mountain road with limited
shoulders and it would have been very dangerous to remain on the road
without any flares or warning devices. I could have pulled into the
driveway of the chicken folks, but I don't pull into strange people's
driveways without a really good reason. That's how people get shot. What
would Mike Shelley have done? "Stay at home since I can't bring my gun" is
simply non-responsive.

In retrospect I could have driven along on three tires until I found a
suitable space on the left shoulder, so the flat tire side could have stayed
on asphalt, but I didn't realize that the shoulder was too soft until I had
already removed the tire. How long is it safe to continue driving on three
wheels before pulling over?

I've changed flat tires myself plenty of times. This is the first time I
got stuck. Rental cars don't offer too many options.

Makes sense to me. Every so-called 'non gay/bi' guy that I've got into bed
has had a wild time. It just takes the guts to try it once

You mean the guy who owns the driveway?

Oh,

Wait...

"Safe" is a relative, not an absolute condition.

A tire can be destroyed rather quickly if you continue to drive
on it when it is flat. This can cost the price of a tire vs. the
price of a patch, but that is not "unsafe".

A car is rather difficult to control when driving on a flat tire,
but if speed is kept low, this is also not particularly "unsafe".

On the other hand, stopping in a spot where there is a significant
possiblity of being struck by oncoming traffic -- THAT is UNsafe!

My though it: "Drive as far as you need to reach a safe place to stop."

What makes you think that I couldn't bring my gun to PR?

Many miles if you drive slowly... If you drive fast, you'll get a lot of
sparks and sooner or later wear the metal rim completely out... The issue is
whether you are trying to save the tire or not... If you don't care whether
the tire and rim gets ruined, you can drive a *long* way...

Shoot the car? If a horse breaks a leg, you shoot it, right? Isn't it the
same with rental cars? <snicker>

Nawh, that's too logical... A California lawyer wouldn't be able to do
that...

I reached a safe spot, across the street from a bunch of chicken killers.
Trouble is, it wasn't a safe and practical spot for tire changing. I guess
we California lawyers need more practice in tire-changing turf-selection
dynamics, but that cuts into billable hours.
