How to Handle a Sudden Tire Blowout While Driving?
1 Answers
Methods to handle a sudden tire blowout while driving: If the rear tire bursts, the driver should firmly grip the steering wheel with both hands to keep the car moving straight, and repeatedly and intermittently press the brake pedal. If the front tire bursts, the driver should forcefully hold the steering wheel to maintain straight-line driving, preventing the vehicle from veering left or right, and gently press the brake pedal to avoid excessive pressure on the front of the car, which could cause the tire to detach. The best response to a tire blowout is to firmly grip the steering wheel and do nothing else until the vehicle stabilizes, then slowly brake and move away from the main road. Remember not to brake suddenly to avoid the vehicle fishtailing or rolling over due to uneven braking force.
