How should you slow down during a blowout?

  1. Pull off the road abruptly

  2. Slow gradually and press brakes lightly

  3. Accelerate then stop

  4. Turn off the engine

The correct answer is: Pull off the road abruptly

During a blowout, it is crucial to maintain control of your vehicle. Abruptly pulling off the road can cause you to lose control, especially if the blowout occurs at high speeds. The correct approach is to hold the steering wheel tightly, ease off the accelerator, and gradually slow down by lightly applying the brakes. This allows you to maintain control of the vehicle and safely navigate to the side of the road. Accelerating or turning off the engine are not appropriate actions during a blowout situation.
