Wheels fall off cars too. Sometimes with the same catastrophic consequences as trucks.
A truck driver was treated for injuries after one of the front wheels from a black sedan came off and crashed through the windshield of a Peterbilt on Interstate 78 near Allentown, Pa., on Saturday, March 16.
The incident occurred at 9:47 a.m. on Saturday. The sedan was traveling westbound when a wheel came off and moved into the eastbound lane before crashing into the tractor-trailer’s windshield.
Photos from the incident posted by the fire department show significant damage to the windshield and the Peterbilt’s hood.
The wheel was later found in a grassy area on the side of the interstate.
No other details of the incident were available.
