Correct Answer:

Apply brakes immediately

Explanation:

During a blowout, the correct first step to take is to maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel and avoid sudden movements while gradually slowing down by taking your foot off the accelerator. This is why applying brakes immediately (Choice A) is the correct answer. It is crucial not to panic and brake suddenly, which can cause loss of control of the vehicle. Keeping a straight line (Choice B), turning on headlights (Choice C), or shifting to neutral (Choice D) could potentially distract the driver or worsen the situation during a blowout.
