How far have you driven on a flat tire ?

Hit a "pothole" in Northern Alberta that blew out three of my tires. Had to drive like that for an hour to get into town. It was either that or possibly die due to exposure.
 
I think the unanswered question here is: How far can you drive on a deflated tire without damaging it so badly it can not be repaired.

And the answer is not far. We're talking ten's of feet here, not hundred's of feet. If you watched the F1 race at Monza, Verstappen only got a mile before his was in pieces. At Spa last year, Vettel couldn't make to the next corner.

But sometimes folks do manage to go a fair distance. YOU HAVE TO INSPECT THE TIRE FOR DAMAGE!! INSIDE AND OUT!!
