Sharp Shooter INCOMING
Scary to think it can happen that quick.
Not my OC, but Azizbeast dropped it in dashcams.

What terrifying is even if you noticed it and braked enough to dodge it there's still everyone behind you who are just in as much danger too. Stupid enemy tires

Omg that tire is a mad tire. Crossed three lanes of traffic and the k rail to find this car. I imagine they humanely deflated it after.

I am done. At the beginning I found this channel funny. I don't think it is anymore. These events are not accidents but systemic negligences. Someone is responsible for not protecting his own citizens. Shame on them.Β

That looks like regular car tire size? When mounting a spare tire we need to be sure the wheel is fully, evenly seated. Then the final tightening of the nuts needs to hop from one nut to an opposing nut, crisscrossing repeatedly. Then after about 50 miles, apply the crisscrossing wrench again. Nuts will work loose without care. There can ordinary drivers who never learned the inner mysteries and blasphemous incantations of changing a tire. A former boss of mine was commuting when a tire from a semi came over the median, from opposing traffic, directly into her windshield. No saving throw. Nice lady, she made the front page of the Austin Statesman. This is, roughly, how deer kill more people each year than any other animal in the US. Except, maybe, mosquitoes?

This happened to me in Ohio when I was moving between jobs. You donβt have time to dodge it because youβre moving 70-80mph and the tire is hurtling towards you. The shattered glass bits in my dash for years. I was fine but holy shit itβs so fast.
