I have seen this happen before with no injuries. It was a Mexican truck going west on I-90 (Pa) past the T/A (exit 35).... I was in my car at night... the truck I was passing had a wheel bearing on fire on the trailer... I flashed my lights to get his attention... nothing. I passed him and pointed for him to stop... nothing. 
The set of tires came off.... luckily they did not hit anyone. I figured the truck would stop.....nope!!!! I decided to follow him and call the police. I was going to stop with the cop but didn't. I told 911 if they needed more info to contact me. This guy was lucky no one got hurt. :nono:

Those tires are heavy enough,but add on the rims,and everything else you got a bomb without the explosives.
So very important to do a complete pre-trip,because the bottom line is drivers are going to take the blame for flying wheels.
