If you don't know how to change a tire/wheel, you don't need to even be behind the steering wheel. It's not exactly rocket science. I mean the owner's manual breaks it down barney-style for you.
Hey you'll find no argument from me here. Maybe the most useful class I took in HS was auto shop, both for acquiring the knowledge on how to fix things and knowing what I'll pay someone else to do. I've changed my own flat tire, flats on company vehicles, and flats for co-worker. I wish more people knew how to do some basic car maintenance but the system's just not set up that way anymore. Using jumper cables, removing a flat & replacing with a spare, hell even replacing wiper blades and air filters have all been regulated to a Don't Need To Know basis.

Not only can I do all of the above, so can my wife. Her dad wouldn't let her or her sister behind the wheel until they could maintain their vehicles and take care of emergencies.
