    I had a steer blow on me once. It wasn't a pleasant experience. My steers didn't look like that, though. They were good steers, not sure what caused it.

    It blew on I10. Truck started swerving side to side and slowing down rapidly. I had traffic behind me and I didn't want them passing before I got pulled off to the side.

    When I gave it throttle I got some control of the truck back. My understanding is braking at freeway speeds with a blown steer might roll it?

    Fortunately I got stopped safely. It sucked though, very nerve wracking.
