Passing target: 80% (24/30)
You drive 60 mph on a highway. You hear a loud bang, and the car starts to swerve. A tire has blown out. What should you do first?
A is still on the highway after a tire blowout. The card states a loud bang and a swerve at 60 mph, and the near front tire is visibly deflated; the question shows no corrective path.
Correct answer: Hold the wheel tightly, keep the car straight, and ease off the gas
Why
When the car has slowed and you have control, brake gently and move completely off the road. To change the tire, set the parking brake, turn on the flashers, block the wheels, and have passengers get out on the passenger side and wait off the road. Do not let anyone stand in front of or behind the vehicle.
