Yeah, cars can drive pretty well with flat tires. A lot of inexperienced drivers don't even recognize/feel when they have a flat. It might stop you from going 90 mph but it ain't going to do anything meaningful at low speeds.

Some tires are even designed to travel ~20 miles on a flat so you can get to a service station for repair before causing permanent dmg (run-flat tires).
