Car Shaking When Driving At High Speeds – Why?

If the car shakes when you drive on high speeds, the problem is obviously with the wheels. One of the reasons is bad balance of the wheels. It may happen after you damage the car wheel in some road pit or over some obstacle.

This may also happen when a tire is damaged. It's not necessarily should go flat, but even a minor damage will cause car shaking. The first thing you should do is to examine all 4 wheels in terms of damages that you can clearly see.

If this doesn't help, better consult the specialists. Sometimes it would be great to go to a special service station that offers wheel servicing. They can investigate each wheel and find the problem easily.

Also, the problem may be hidden in suspension. When you drive in the city, the speed isn't that big and you don't feel that your car shakes. But on higher speed on highways, you will feel the shaking because all the parts are rotating faster and they can start shaking much more intensively.

If the vehicle starts shaking too much, better stop the car. If you keep driving, it can be very dangerous. Even if you take the decision to drive, move as close to the right side of the road as possible, start moving slowly, and pay more attention to how the vehicle goes on the road. Stop at any point when you feel that it's dangerous to drive.
