I had always assumed that the braking force would be applied more to the blown tire, at least for the first few seconds until the tread comes off.

I have also heard that you should actually accelerate at first to help maintain control, then slow to a stop with minimal braking (assuming it's safe to do so.)

Sean, Thanks for sharing the information.
