Question

when your tire blows out in the middle of a drive, you should _____.
pump the brakes immediately
let go of the steering wheel
immediately steer to the side of the road
grip the steering wheel firmly

Explanation:

When a tire blows out, sudden braking (pumping brakes immediately) can cause loss of control. Letting go of the steering wheel is extremely dangerous. Steering immediately to the side of the road without stabilizing first is risky. Gripping the steering wheel firmly helps maintain control and allows for a more controlled maneuver to the side of the road.

Answer:

grip the steering wheel firmly
