Was out with some friends...LATE night. As we were leaving the parking space, we ran over a bottle. Some ********* intentionally put a bottle under our car tire so we'd get a flat when we left.
My friends are Panamanian, so I asked "What about a tow truck?" Apparently either they don't exist here or my friends didn't know of any OR they didn't want to spend the money. We put on the spare, but of course it went flat right away too (bad luck that night). At this point in the night, the only option was to get a spare from someone OR take a ride with the flat tire to a 24 tire guy who would fix it. We got a spare from my friend's dad, but of course it was too small. Luckily, there was 5 of us, so some stayed back to watch the car while we continued the madness (apparently its not a good idea to abandon your car in certain areas and come back in the morning). We finally take the original tire to a 24 tire shop and get it fixed. After all this fiasco, I get home at 6:30 in the morning. Ironically, I was ready to go home around 1:30am.
Moral of the story, when out partying late night, check your tires before you drive off and make sure your spare has air in it.
