This reminds me of an incident that took place earlier this year.

Tire from southbound transport truck slams into vehicle in northbound lane.

Well...photos speaks for themselves. Man died of injuries.

That is nuts!

A buddy of mine has a C7 Corvette that happened to last year. Lifted full size truck with big tires going the opposite direction lost a wheel and it shot into the side of his car. It was down the rest of the summer and cost over $20k to fix. He talked about how lucky he was that it wasn't a split second sooner which would have hit him head on rather than in the drivers door.

When I lived I Milwaukee I saw wheels come off cars on highway 2x. 1 made it over median. Lived there 1 year. Never saw it happen before or since. Crazy.
