Front tire flats

Within the last month, 2 friends have had major crashes due to front tire flats, both ending up in the emergency room. I’ve had a bunch of rear tire flats, but never up front. I hope the tire gods aren’t reading this.

Besides inspecting your tires to make sure the front tire has good tread, properly inflated, no foreign objects, blah, blah, blah, any good advice for when the front does flat, how to avoid any further complications?

I’d suspect stopping as soon as it’s recognized and steering straight would be at the top of the list.

Anyone want to share their personal experiences and impart their wisdom on BF?
