What to Do in Case of a Sudden Tire Blowout on the Highway?

[LiamLee]

Highway driving tire blowout handling methods: 1. If it's a front tire blowout, firmly grip the steering wheel to adjust the vehicle's direction. Avoid repeatedly jerking the steering wheel or slamming on the brakes. Wait for the vehicle speed to gradually decrease before gently steering to a stop, then set up a warning triangle behind the car to prevent secondary accidents. 2. If it's a rear tire blowout, gradually reduce speed by easing off the accelerator and downshifting to bring the car to a gentle stop. Functions of car tires: 1. Support the entire weight of the vehicle, bear the car's load, and transmit forces and moments in other directions. 2. Transmit traction and braking torque, ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface to enhance the car's power, braking, and off-road performance; work in conjunction with the car's suspension to mitigate impacts during driving and dampen resulting vibrations. 3. Protect automotive components from severe vibrations and premature damage, adapt to the vehicle's high-speed performance, reduce driving noise, and ensure driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
