Flat Tire Help tips for Golden roads

In Clear Creek Canyon on US-6 there are few pullouts and spotty signal; get to the widest pullout you can, then request help as soon as you have service.

Main routes we cover in Golden: US-6 through Clear Creek Canyon, SH-93, I-70 and the north end of C-470, plus spots like Colorado School of Mines, downtown Washington Avenue and Lookout Mountain.

What to do right now

  1. Signal and move fully off the road onto a flat, straight spot.
  2. Turn on hazards and set the parking brake.
  3. Check whether you have a usable spare and lug wrench, or a lock-nut key.
  4. Request help in ShoulderCrew so a nearby helper can swap the spare or inflate a slow leak.
