But for me, I've never had a blowout or tire failure that was a problem or seemed like a potential harm to me. At most the tire feels a little squirrely as it gets low on air. But that lets you know to slow down because something is wrong. And I've also had blowouts that result in sudden loss of pressure too. None where a issue even when at speed.
This assertion is so different from my own experience I have to wonder what your definition of "speed" is? I've had a couple blowouts over 30 mph, and those were memorable, to say the least.
