How to Handle a Tyre Burst and how to avoid it?

Many of us are exposed to a sudden explosion of one of his tires, whether front or rear, which endangers the lives of passengers. If this happens, God forbid, then you must calm down and deal with that by following the following procedures:

In the event of a rear tire burst

When the rear tire explodes, the car will swing on the road, especially if its speed exceeds 50 miles per hour. The brakes while swinging the car may lead to its rollover, so remember always: Never use the car’s brakes when a tire explodes. Increase your speed a little to maintain the momentum of the car to reduce the possibility of rolling over and then reduce your speed gradually until it stops naturally.

Reduce the speed with the gearshift “only” if you are able to control the steering wheel well with one hand.

In the event of a front tire burst

The explosion of one of the front tires will cause the car to deviate strongly from the road, hold on to the steering wheel to correct the car’s path, and never think about touching the foot brake unless you regain control of the car and this is very calm and gentle, and if the horizon in front of you is open, let the car slow itself down, and use the brakes Manual constantly helps slow the car, but be careful not to close the two rear wheels so that the pressure does not transfer to the exploding tire, which will swing the car, and always remember that returning the car to its lane until it slows down by itself is your first option and not to drive the car for a long distance with a burst tire.
