What should you do if a tyre on the front axle bursts?

Correct answer

Reduce speed gently.

If a tyre on the front axle bursts while driving, we must gradually reduce speed so that the vehicle's steering is not affected and we do not lose control of it. Under no circumstances should we brake sharply, and even less should we accelerate, as this could compromise our safety.
