Texas CDL General Knowledge Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

When a tire blows out at highway speeds, which of the following may happen?

A. Vibrating feeling

When a tire blows out at highway speeds, the most common sensation a driver may experience is a vibrating feeling. This occurs because the sudden loss of air pressure can cause the vehicle to become unstable, leading to a loss of control. The driver may feel a shuddering or shaking sensation as the vehicle responds to the imbalance created by the blown tire.

Other options, such as the loss of mirrors or an increase in acceleration, are less likely to directly result from a tire blowout. A loud noise from the radio also does not relate to the mechanical failure of a tire. Instead, the vibrating feeling serves as a crucial indicator that the driver must take immediate action to regain control of the vehicle.
