On Monday evening, former soccer player and VGTV profile Mads Hansen (38) shared a photo of his car’s tire that had been punctured.
– Fortunately, today I am the only one who needs roadside assistance, Hansen wrote ironically to the photo.
On Monday, among others, Nettavisen wrote closed roads and driving in queuesand many others that were weatherproof during the Christmas holidays. But for Hansen, it was all very undramatic despite the weather.
When confronted with Nettavisen, Hansen says it’s not weatherproof at all. The accident was discovered in his own driveway. Hansen had yet to call roadside assistance and is now apologizing to the other weather forecasters.
Waited for several hours
– When I was driving home two days ago, I received a notification that I had low tire pressure, but I didn’t think too much about it as I didn’t see anything special. But when I went out the next day, the tire was completely flat, Hansen tells Nettavisen.
Hansen, who he says has no knowledge of cars, then called roadside assistance. He quickly realized that he wasn’t alone in car trouble on Boxing Day.

– I was told it would be four to six hours before they could come, says Hansen.
– Unlike the many people who sat sheltered from the weather in various ditches on Boxing Day, I could sit within my own home. In my defense, roadside assistance told me the tire damage wasn’t something I could fix myself, but I still feel I have to apologize to other motorists who were out in freezing temperatures for taking time for Viking, he says Hansen.
Soapy streets
Hansen was by no means alone in struggling to get on the road on Boxing Day.
