Explanation
If a tire blows out while you're driving, take your foot off the gas pedal and avoid using the brakes. Focus on steering and allow the car to slow down gradually. Once the vehicle is under control, brake gently and pull completely off the road. Never stop in the middle of the road, as this could create serious hazards for other drivers.
