A bursting tire at 170 kph isn't exactly the kind of thing most of us can enjoy, but it is what happend on my birthday while en route to the Ruhrfestspiele. Once you made sure you won't lose it, quite an interesting experience. No damages, no injuries occured - a nice birthday gift.

If this should happen to you: don't let yourself be distracted by the bang and do not brake immediately. Stay on the gas or even step further on it for a short while to stabilize the car. Gently countersteer to keep it in its lane. Once you stabilized the car, gently slow down and pull over.
