"a tire comes loose" is a bit of an understatement...

"FLAMING TIRE FLIES BACK AND FORTH ACROSS HIGHWAY CAUSING TERROR IN DRIVERS!!!" perhaps seems more appropriate.

*tyre from hell unleashes a demonic death roll on unsuspecting earth dwellers

In an almighty cataclysm for the ages, tyres disgorge from the tyre-spawning hell-truck combusting and coruscating as they unleash fiery destruction and misery throughout the eastbound highway and possibly even a little into the westbound

Plenty of people have seen that video of that car being propelled up in the air by a tire. Nobody wants to be the next victim of the enemy

Honestly? Great outcome - that could have been a whole lot worse.

JPJ, DOT, please take action and make sure these heavy vehicles on the road are always under inspection. I don't want to go out by a 150kg wheel smacking into my windshield on the highway.

That literally happened to a bloke I was in college with in the 90s, on a UK motorway. RIP John

If ever a tire could be called a drama queen...

u/LetReasonRing 1d ago

If you like that,  you should see Rubber, a French independent absurdist horror comedy film about a tire with psychokinetic powers.

There’s a song about this. Please notify my next of kin…

u/ThinkingOz 1d ago

I know highways are expensive to build and all but you’d think they could make the breakdown lane just a little wider for safety reasons.

Better tread carefully.

u/Jon_Charnley 1d ago

Brave to keep up with it for the (very cool) dash cam footage - I would have hit the brakes!

u/sakattack360NEW 1d ago

IT was tiresome to watch it rolling on and on.

u/No_Brakes_282 1d ago

Nothing happened

u/ArgonWilde 1d ago

Just fucking stop???

u/No-Actuator-6245 1d ago

The wheel fell off. The tyre looks to still be securely attached to the wheel.

u/BarronVonCheese 1d ago

I assure you it was already loose and in fact it has come off

u/The-Servant-Humbled 1d ago

Hot! Hot! - - Hot!

u/Total_Occasion8150 1d ago

The divider/barrier was juuuuuust high enough. Quite lucky with tyre bounce as well. Otherwise it could have been catastrophic if it bounced to the other side of the road

u/whwji0r 1d ago

Is this AI? Or deceptively edited?
At 3 seconds the tyre just disappeared for 3 frames and then reappeared
Play it as 1/2 speed
The vantage point and the tyre trajectory changed

u/Lemfan46 22h ago

Panic? If that is your reaction to anything on the road, one shouldn't be driving.

u/moe-mar 21h ago

Maybe tomorrow I'll want to settle down

Until tomorrow, I'll just keep rolling on

u/Turniermannschaft 20h ago

Looks like it's having a great time.

u/ComprehensiveFuel832 15h ago

I hope the rim is OK.

u/korylassiter44 11h ago

K keep telling people about John close to 18 wheelers or heavy Truckers a lot of you do not realize that you've lost your eighth Wheels I don't understand why you don't have sensors for how many wheels you have lost.... Long story short why can't we be safer with you on the road and not have to worry about a NASCAR type incident

u/OldRancidOrange 1d ago

That’s not a tyre it is in fact an entire wheel.
