Would that cause your vehicle to violently turn to the left?

Yes.The wheel becomes moot deflated and would immediately force the car into a violent left turn.. you would really need to be on your game with both hands planted firmly on the steering wheel to react to the massive pull… obviously he wasn’t..

One more irrational fear while driving.

Having a blowout is extremely rare. There are always different factors involved but it’s a rare occurrence especially with your tyres in good shape.

Looks like he wasn't wearing a seat belt which could have saved his life in this instance.

Seat belts save lives. I'm able to type this message because I was wearing my seatbelt in more than one wreck.

I’m a real estate photographer, so I drove all over Florida all day pretty much everyday. About a month ago I was in the middle lane on the highway, cars on both sides of me, in front and behind almost bumper to bumper but going at a consistent speed of about 75-80+ MPH. Mind you I was also driving a stick shift, adds to the adrenaline and excitement of a blowout. Which is what happened to my rear passenger side tire, it immediately tried to jerk the car to the right and into the car beside me. Had I not grabbed the steering wheel with my other hand the split second I heard the pop and felt the tug, I would have easily been a video on this site. My whole back end of my car started trying to swerve side to side. Luckily I managed to slow down enough the instant it happened, to let the car on my left fly by and I cut over into the breakdown lane heart pounding a mile a minute lol.
