If a tire blows out, the driver should:

Grip the steering wheel firmly to maintain control of the car.

This action helps stabilize the vehicle and allows the driver to ease off the accelerator, slow down gradually, and guide the vehicle safely to the side of the road. After regaining control, the driver can then find a safe place to stop and assess the situation. It is important not to brake hard, as this could cause further loss of control. Continuing to drive normally is also not advisable.
