Low Tire Pressure Sensor

I'm sure this stupid option saved my wheel and tire, and maybe even more if I would have had a blow out on my right front tire. I thought I dodged the board in the road, but I didn't quite make it. Didn't think anything about it, but about a mile later the light came on because I picked up a nail. I live 25 miles from work and probably would have ruined the wheel and tire if I would have kept driving. Luckily I was able to safely pull into an abandoned Wal-Mart parking lot and put the spare on.
