What should you do if a tire blows out while driving?

  1. Slam on the brakes

  2. Swerve to the left side of the road

  3. Accelerate

  4. Steer straight

The correct answer is: Steer straight

If you slam on the brakes when a tire blows out, it can cause your car to lose control and spin out. Swerving to the left side of the road can also be dangerous, as you may collide with oncoming traffic. Accelerating will only make the car harder to control. Steering straight allows you to maintain control of the vehicle and gradually slow down. It is important to stay calm and avoid sudden or drastic movements in the event of a tire blowout.
