Quick video as titled. Somewhere in China.
and the truck keeps going!
... so you had a bad day....
.... If it wern’t for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all....
What are the odds?!
Sorry Charlie... ...
That second tire really had it in for the guy. ALMOST got him.
Click on HERE and what do you get? What did you intend for us to get?
That should buff right out.
I accept your eye dialectic spelling of was not.
Back in the 80’s a tire came off a truck on the interstate about 200 yards ahead of me. I rolled straight down the center line between the two lanes and kept going. Didn’t see where it went after it passed me.
Seems I can't see the video, but I hand an experience some years ago when a truck tire came off and over the median, toward me. I was able to avoid it. In my rearview mirror I saw it sideswipe a car behind me. The truck kept going, never stopped.
This was on I80 south of Gary, Indiana.
You were lucky. In High School I used to seat those tires on the split rims. F’n heavy as hell. Seating them you had to put the recranked down rims in a steel cage. Spray in an amazing amount of ether and then throw in a match. BOOM. Tractor tires were way scarier. Used to wear a helmet for those.
This was on I80 south of Gary, Indiana.
Not far from there, a friend lived in an apartment adjacent to I-294, a lost truck wheel came down the embankment and CRUSHED his car.
Totaled.
Thanks for the affirmation.
2 weeks ago somewhere between west virginia and virginia we were driving down an interstate and watched as a tractor trailer lost a tire on the other side of the median up ahead...massive tire jumped the median in front of us and rolled up the hill beside us and then rolled back down. Freaked us out completely. We thanked God for the next several minutes as we kept driving.

I appears someone was holding and moving the camera.
I had the same experience in Phoenix. Truck about 1/4 mile ahead of me lost a tire on the freeway and it came bouncing down the lane straight at me. There were cars on both side of me so I couldn’t swerve and I could only brake slowly because there was someone right behind me. Luckily, it bounced right over both of us and kept on bouncing down the freeway until it stopped.
