What should you do if you are driving and suddenly experience a tire blowout?

Brake suddenly to slow down.
Steer in the opposite direction of the blowout.
Grip the steering wheel firmly and steer straight.
Accelerate to regain control of the vehicle.

The correct answer is: Grip the steering wheel firmly and steer straight.

If you experience a tire blowout while driving, it is important to grip the steering wheel firmly and steer straight. This will help you maintain control of the vehicle and prevent it from swerving or spinning out of control. It is important to avoid braking suddenly, as this can cause the vehicle to skid, and to avoid accelerating, as this can make it more difficult to steer. Steering in the opposite direction of the blowout can also be dangerous, as it may cause the vehicle to veer into another lane or off the road. Therefore, the best course of action is to maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel and steer straight until the vehicle comes to a stop.
