Tire + rock + 50 mph = :-(

This happened last night. I was driving down the road during the first storm of the season when I hit a softball-sized rock at the edge of the pavement. It flattened my right-rear tire immediately, and also put a slow leak in the right-front one, which I discovered this morning.

Luckily there was no one around me, and I didn't lose control of the car. I was OK, but it still shook me up and gave me a massive jolt of adrenaline. I couldn't fall asleep for a couple of hours after.
