Default Questions on shocks

i have stock shocks on my 98 civic .the rear passenger side one is blown. Would that cause the car to swerve when i hit a bump?

it could possibly be from the shock, but i doubt it. my buddy rode around with both rear shocks blown and it drove fine.

my last car (dc2) had the front passenger side blow. i would drive it basically every day to school on the highway doing like 80-90. the only noticeable difference was the fact that the car bounced and wouldent stop bouncing every time i hit even the smallest bump. i think u just need a alignment.... ...and a shock.
