Punctured Tire can be repaired by ourselves???

I went to shop for baby stuffs yesterday with my mother. While i was driving, my mother openned my ar drawer to have a look and she found a small plug and asked me what is that, so i explain to her, those are tires plugs. Due to my car tires punctured quite frequently, i bring some tire plugs in my car for spares.

You must be curious how i know to repair the punctured tires? It is pretty simple to repair the tires esspecially when you run out of time to a destination. First of all, if the puncture is less than 1/4 inch in diameter and only if the puncture is on the tire's tread.

Remove the punctured tire from rim. Clean the interior of your tire and lastly plug the tire. A mushroom shaped plug with the top inside the tire and the "stem" filling the area that was punctured.
