Have you experienced a tire blow out...?

Yup. Goodyear 670RV with about 45-50,000 miles and 8 years old. Blew a hole in the LF sidewall at 65 mph on the interstate. Loud,Loud explosion and MH moved left a couple of feet. I got it straightened out and then tapped the brake to get the CC off. Let it slow down and then got off on the shoulder. A call to my road service and my spare tire got us back on the road in about an hour and a half.
The biggest risk was the possibility of over correcting when turning back to the right. With the LF tire flat, the MH was leaning to the left and steering correction to the right could have easily been over done resulting in loss of control.
