I've blown a rear tire on a tow vehicle while towing our 19K GVWR 5th wheel. It was the OEM General AmeriTrac on the inside right rear dually of our previous truck that decided to come apart. Being a dually, it was completely stable throughout the entire event, and I was even able to limp 5 miles to a service station where I could change the tire safely since the road had no shoulder where I could pull off.

And sadly we are making this a DRW SRW debate, as said front tires also blow.
If anything we should be talking about the importance of seat belts, this isn't a thread on the supposedly greatness of DRW's . A man lost his life, and in most likely hood had he had his seat belt on this may not have happened
