You've got what's known as a "dead short" somewhere in the brake light system. This could be a very long and tedious procedure and go through alot of fuses but it's got to be done. First pull out ALL the brake light bulbs, including the 3rd brake light. Look very closely at all the sockets and surrounding wires to see and bare spots. I'm betting you have a problem in one of the brake light housings. Check these out VERY CLOSELY. With NO bulbs in the sockets, put in a new fuse and step on the brake pedal. If the use blows, it's a bare or broken wire somewhere and you've got to manually check every inch of the wiring harness. If the fuse did not blow, replace one bulb at a time and step on the brake pedal. When you put a bulb in and the fuse blows you've found your problem. You may need to replace the whole housing. Good Luck.

Apply your brakes to slow/stop the vehicle (don't slam them on) and try to steer the vehicle off the roadway and out of traffic. Do not drive on a blown out tire, install your spare or call a tow company.

If your tire blows out should you apply your brakes immediately?

No, you should take your foot off the accelerator and slowly apply the brakes in that order. Do not slam on the brakes. Do not panic and hold the steering wheel solidly with both hands. Slow down and pull off the road. If you do not panic you will have no problem controlling your vehicle and safely stopping. The odds of a blowout on modern tires is very slim if you keep them at the recommended pressure as listed in your owners manual and on the drivers door post and do not overload your vehicle.
