Are vehicles with a maximum of nine seats, including the driver’s, required to carry a spare wheel?
Travel: Preventive and efficient driving
Explanation
It is not mandatory to carry a spare wheel in vehicles with a maximum of nine seats if the vehicle is equipped with a **puncture repair kit**. This kit is a valid alternative to the spare wheel, as it allows for the temporary repair of a puncture and continuation of the journey until reaching a place where a complete repair can be carried out.
Therefore, if your vehicle has a puncture repair kit, you do not need to carry a spare wheel obligatorily. This facilitates transportation, as the kit takes up less space and is lighter than a full wheel, allowing for better load distribution and space in the vehicle.
