[QUOTE=Chance;20821

The possibility of a rear blowout in my single-rear-wheel van concerns me more. If at high speed in a curve it could become hard to control.[/QUOTE]

That is a good point. The video showed manufactured blowouts in ideal situations. Add oncoming traffic, narrow pavement, rough roads, curves, hills, etc., then it can become a very serious situation very quickly.

For those of us who drove for many years in snowy climates, there is less tendency to brake hard during a blowout. There is nothing worse than forcefully applying the brakes on ice and packed snow.
