Your photo shows that the side channel cuts ("Sipes") are completely worn away on the shoulder indicating a large amount of wear when compared with photos of new Vredestein tyres on the web, where the sipes extend down over the shoulder whereas you have none left. I guess that hitting a pothole must have caused the weak area to blow out. Glad you are ok though.
