Not at all blaming the victim, but for personal safety this is exactly why you must have a space cushion between self and other vehicles. When you're that close to another vehicle you have no time at all to react to anything. They could be drunk and swerve into you. They could have seen a hazard in their lane at the last minute and made a panic move to avoid it. Could lose control of the vehicle for any number of reason. This may still not have been avoidable no matter what, but it's also possible that there may have been more time to slow down and/or change lanes had there been more distance between the vehicles but the Kia Soul was passing quickly on the left of the truck (GMC Sierra?) and that wheel detached literally last minute as the Kia was about neck and neck.

Usually the tire would just roll over the hood, smash the windshield and fly back into oncoming traffic. I have never seen a car catapulted into the air from hitting a rolling tire. Freakish incident. She better count her blessings that she's still above ground. That SUV flew atleast 15 ft in the air.
Imagine minding your business going about your way and in a split second you’re atleast 10-15 ft upside down in the air. Thank god everyone came out okay.
That’s scary and I’m starting to earn my drivers license In hope everybody is okay and that’s looks like something you’re I’ll see in a Fast and the Furious movie
Imagine being in a car that just flipped through the air and slid 30 yards, and then a rogue tire that caused you to crash comes back and hits you AGAIN
I work on these trucks a lot and constantly warn people about inappropriate modifications. What rim dealers don't tell them is. Stock axle and bearings aren't designed for the dangerous weight or angle stress they add. They can void warranties and seriously reduce brake performance. Also lower the load capacity a lot. They serve no practical purpose. So i don't see them as an upgrade either.
The idiot who owned my truck before me, apparently installed a mediocre lift kit. Unfortunately, the money currently isn't there to remove the lift and install stock tires. Paranoid lately of this scenario becoming a reality.
Most people don’t realize how expensive it is to lift a truck with quality components that won’t cause a mess like this. A proper lift kit will allow for these negative offset wheels while correcting the geometry to cause as little additional stress on steering, suspension, and wheel hub components as possible. However, most people unfortunately cheap out. Luckily, the majority of failures tend to not be this catastrophic.
If you look carefully at the rim in the closing shots, the mounting face is very shiny and large. It looks like the entire brake rotor is still attached. This suggests a suspension failure, or as others have pointed out, a failed spacer.
@J thats a joke right do you realize how much crime actually gets committed on those 2 modes of transportation. Granted alot mostly happens in big cities but they aren't as safe as a personal vehicle
@J Comment doesn't really apply to recent events, atleast with all of the train derailments that have been occurring. Also considering all of the chemicals some of those trains carry, it's hard to say trains are safer.
Truck had extreme modified offset wheels which puts a heavy load on the spindle and axle bearing. The lost wheel assembly still had the rotor and spindle bearing attached. These modifications are extremely dangerous causing severe changes in steering geometry and stress loads on bearing parts.
I can’t believe I had to scroll so far to find this, the driver is responsible because there’s no way these were DOT legal modifications, and obviously they were shoddily done.
The fact that this comment was buried so deep is really sad. Truck driver is 1000% at fault for this. Just looking at the video, you can tell this truck has been modified, and I’m willing to bet it was done in his driveway, instead of by a professional.
Some people just don’t know how to modify their cars. Those spacers are irresponsible. What’s worse, it looked stupid before the wheel flew off, much more so after.
Not no reason. The driver of the truck was operating it negligently. Full well knowing there was a problem with the tire. Whether it was not properly secured lug nuts or a broken a hub bearing, the driver knew. But they made the conscious decision to drive anyways.
It happened to a relative, a wheel came off, although fortunately nothing serious happened. There is no way of knowing that you will run out of wheels, it's funny how they blame the truck driver.
@@jaycyclondo I asked you if you did, not me. Did I address me? And did you completely ignore my point like we would move onto arguing over insults like you were hoping for.
As scary as this looks....kudos to the automaker, engineers and factory workers who built that car. The safety systems did their job AND protected that driver. Well done, glad she is otherwise ok.
I work in automotive. I was wondering if the initial impact and launch would be enough frontal deceleration to trigger the airbags. Or did the accelerometers feed crazy enough data to the airbag controller that it channeled a Star Trek moment and electronically screamed "fire everything!"... The side curtain bags were already deployed when it hit the ground upside down.. I have to assume the driver's frontal and leg bags were too.
Absolutely insane! One second you’re sharing the road, the next you are 20 feet on the air and falling into to the pavement. It must’ve felt so confusing to the Kia driver. Glad to hear everyone walked away with minor injuries.
@@gatsbylight4766 you're the type of person to try and crack a joke after someone else's joke only to be ignored with awkward silence. In other words, you sound like a clown...
I second that. It’s a miracle she’s alive. Had a relative at IIHS. They couldn’t say much because of an NDA. But what they did say when we were getting our permits as kids was for the love of god don’t buy a Kia Soul. This was 2013 so things might have changed.
@@DuckiestBoat959 based on what you just said, I'm gonna go ahead and assume the IIHS data isn't fully reported because their test results are supposed to be published yet they're making their employees sign NDAs. My guess is they get paid by the car companies to keep the REALLY bad results quiet.
Especially when you’re driving next to a moron with modified wheels of a size that don’t belong on that truck. There’s a reason they’re ignoring this fact because only a certain group of people do this.
Shout out to the engineers that designed the safety structure and devices in that car. A lot of luck here but still incredible that the car held together and absorbed landing on its roof from that height and speed.
I got to tell you Kia engines are not the best and their company has had a not so great past of honesty that being said from what I have seen in crashes Kia and Hyundai's do pretty well and are built pretty decent for what you get for the money. I still wouldn't buy one and it's no Volvo but still not too bad.
How the driver didn't get killed is a miracle. The impact point coming down was the driver area quarter of the car. The car's safety designers deserve a lot of praise.
The wheel even came back for seconds. I'm glad the driver survived, and I hope for a instant recovery. Edit: Guys, I appreciate the likes. But damn, it's a full-on warfare in the replies section. So, I'm just not going to respond to anything either good or bad. Gotta jet, stay classy yall. ✌🎸B)

@@The_Eagle_Official The car is a tool. One of its jobs is to keep the driver and passengers safe. It did its job. I would say that makes that car more than okay.

Holy crap, that's WILD!! It was literally a split second event that no one could control! Goes to show no matter how careful of a driver you are, something bad can always happen
@@djaysyn777 Yeah, shame on the driver for not being able to glimpse into the future and avoid the completely avoidable accident with his psychic ability.
just looking at how high the suspension is raised on that truck clearly indicates some sort of modification. But It is impressive how the kia flew up that high... even more so the driver surviving without serious injuries. vehicular safety has progressed a lot
The truck also had spacers to make the wheels stick out further to the sides. That puts more stress on components and the components themselves are probably aftermarket and may not be high quality or correctly installed.
@Antonio-Gransci Agreed. Unnecessary modifications that turn a vehicle into a more deadly hazard for everyone else on the road should make the owner criminally liable. Spacers that make wheels stick outside the wheel wells even when straight and lift kits that cause your bumpers to be higher than everyone else's probably shouldn't be street-legal.
@@Sashazurno spacers on that truck, the wheels had a positive offset that put the wheels further out. You can tell by how “deep” the face of the wheel is. Wheels like this do add extra wear on the bearings, but it doesn’t appear that the hub came off, just the wheel.
Lol, that truck is not raised. The roof is only slightly higher than the Kia, definitely stock height. The aftermarket wheels are taller than factory, but only raise the truck by a couple inches if that.
You can see the brake disc still attached to the wheel which means it was a wheel bearing failure. The bearing failed most likely because of the excessive unsprung weight and offset of the aftermarket wheels and tires. This means that every time it goes over a bump the bearing experiences a twisting force rather than one lined up with it.
im not entirely sure but i think i could be a wheel spacer, which is a useless thing that attaches to the bearing but only to push the wheels out for aesthetics.
Brake disc is still attached, but the extra weight likely didn't cause the bearing failure. The axle nut needs torqued to a specific spec otherwise the bearing will fail. My guess is that Jim Bob, Joe Bob, Billy Bob, and Bob Bob didn't torque it properly when installing the lift kit.
In Germany, we have something called Tüv, but it's a major inspection that is done by different organizations. In America, you should have this too. Every 2 years you have to take your vehicle to a Tüv station where an engineer inspects the vehicle for safety and exhaust emissions. This costs around 100 euros and after passing the test you get a new sticker on your license plate. Okay, a rim that doesn't belong on the truck has fallen off. However, the brake disk was still on the rim. So I conclude that there was something wrong with the suspension. Such damage is noticeable and can also be heard and felt when driving, long before it ever comes to such a drama. The Truck would not have never ever passed a TÜV inspection in Germany.
I don;t think recovering from this accident will be hard for either party - no one was seriously injured, and no law penalties will happen to anyone (most probably). So actually they will be happy with the outcome (they survived), and will retell the story as a heroic deed. I am quite sure both of them will be ok - with even possibility they will become friends - as it clearly was an accident, with no evil intent
I can't even imagine how much panic everyone involved was feeling The people getting thrown into the air The guy driving the truck Everyone in the immediate surroundings Really is fortunate nobody died or was maimed
@@devalue7064 Same thing when someone t-boned me or when I hydroplaned at 20mph once. In both cases, it's like I momentarily blacked out. In the t-bone incident, I just remember seeing their car so closed to me and realizing that _this was it_ (I was going to get hit); in the hydroplaning incident, all I remember is the car swishing out of nowhere and my head starting to wobble
I didn’t even think of how the truck driver was feeling. The sudden loss of control, falling and lurching toward the right side, not knowing if you’re going to safely be able to pull over or slow down without someone running into you, that spike of horror and adrenaline. 🥵
@chess brah then explain why others with way wider offsets than his don’t fail constantly. Who said he did the mod himself? What if he took it to a shop and they did it incorrectly without his knowledge? Who’s to say the mod caused it? I have an uncle who had a stock truck that the driver side wheel and tire flew off (thankfully he wasn’t going fast and was on a backroad and no one got hurt) once we inspected his truck, his lugs had literally sheered and we still don’t know why. Happened over 10 years ago, still has the truck today and drives it. He obviously had some damage to fix but it’s in good shape now and runs and drives great. Never had anymore issues

@@bradentheman1373 For me, it was almost like i was going in slow motion like in a dream. It didn't feel real at all, but before I hit the ground, I pressed my left arm against the car door and my right against the passenger seat as hard as i possibly could. I pressed so hard that when the car was rolling over, I stayed in place. Luckily, I got no injuries from it. I did have a dream about it the day before it happened, tho.
This is not a once in a lifetime. Wheel assembly of honda CRV came off last year near Corpus Cristi and caused a car carrying students to a church prom alternative to flip/roll.
This is why cars are tested so rigorously. This is quite possibly a worst case scenario as far as a vehicle travelling on the freeway is concerned, and it performed admirably. Big ups to Kia
Big ups to Kia indeed. Kia used to be nothing but the butt of jokes when I was younger, but they've stepped up their game big time over the past 10-15 years. I would be comfortable buying one.
it's an older model, like 2010 to 2013. the thing too is, the roof ridgidity test was pretty new around then. I believe it started in like 2008? I looked it up it actually was 2010 when it was required. so yeah that's a win
A) Modern cars are very safe. You can see the roof didn't collapse and the interiors were completely cushioned by airbags. B) Oncoming cars were driving safely and kept the right distance. C) Didn't get that.
car windows and body panels are designed in a way that they wont come off towards the passenger compartment. Airbags deploy and the bits they are hiding under pretty much all stay where they were aside from the air bag coming out around them

That the car did a perfect flip without killing the driver, the truck that lost the tire didn't even crash, and nobody else got involved in the accident is insane. So many simpler crashes have led to chain reactions that made them so much bigger and worse.
Holy CRAP. Goddamn, that was F1 crash levels.

All my coworkers also noticed it
Something similar happened a few years ago on the 101. A truck was in the far left lane and I could see his tire starting to come off. The truck tried to make it to the right shoulder, but before it could, the tire came off, jumped the median to the opposite freeway, landed on a Prius' windshield, bounced back onto the original freeway and rolled around before finally stopping. Best way I could describe it was that it looked like Sonic The Hedgehog.
"And thats why we have seatbelts" i started writing before he even said she was wearing the seatbelt bc i knew thats the only way to survive such a thing

Seatbelts are meant to prevent you from flying through the windshield upon impact. You can point to five people who survived due to not having a seatbelt on but others can point at 500 others who lived due to seatbelts @@goddaniel9478
Luckily the car landed on the hood first then rolled onto the roof. If the Kia (any car really) landed roof first we'd be having a very different conversation.
@@CamelSmokes23 though a car's roof should be able to sustain 5 times the weight of the vehicle's weight (though this was years ago, the law might be different now), not sure if there is the same law in the US. Still, the roof is probably the weakest part of any car
The tire was bigger than the ones on the Kia. Possibly, it hit one of the tires. It must have hit at a considerable speed too because the car did not look like it tilted. The fact that the front of the car slammed first, it is a miracle that the driver is still okay.
I am glad that I did not experience the same thing with my car when a rolling tire from a truck hit the side of it. I was stopping at a red light waiting for it to turn green.

The person in the KIA is o.k. Wow. I thought her head would be crushed. KIA's safety rating goes to 10 after this. This should be in their advertising and the engineering department deserves a raise.
I know exactly what happened. The truck had those wheels with a crazy offset that sticks them out past the fenders a good 8 inches. Looks like the wheel bearing/ hub broke, You can see the rotor still attached so it wasn’t the wheel studs. May have had spacers on it too.
Dumb people modifying their cars thinking it looks cool. They don't understand that it compromises the safety of the car. Police should enforce more the checks on that type of mods.
I used to do delivery for commercial auto parts stores, thank God there's actually people on here other than myself who know exactly what happened here! This was 100% a failed DIY wheel spacer modification, probably all done/tightened by hand in a driveway within the last two weeks.
I fell riding lime scooter to work hit my head, concussion, ambulance to ER, 7 staples in my head, AND MY BOSS STILL WANTED ME TO COME IN AFTER I WAS DISCHARGED SAME DAY.
Glad everyone involved is ok. I’ve never seen anything like that before, talk about one-in-a-million odds. That tire had to come off at just the right time & the Kia had to be in just the right place to make that happen. Absolutely crazy.
…plus…the tire came back and hit the car again…like it was on a demonic string or program…thanking the Lord that everyone walked away with minor injuries and ALIVE…!❤
WTF that's horrible engineering how can a wheel get underneath their vehicle and flip it over that's so stupid why would you commend the engineering when a wheel can launch their vehicle that high in the air
I have horrible, morbid, anxious thoughts about this exact situation when I'm on the road sometimes. Freaks me the hell out, thank god this woman was ok.
This brings back a terrifying memory of my own. I was driving on a major freeway, about six car lengths behind a car towing a boat on a trailer. I saw a wheel came off their trailer and come flying my direction, bouncing from one side of the lane to another. The trailer frame hit the road and began throwing sparks and a cloud of metal debris. I did my best to dodge it all, although it was impossible to know where any of the bouncing material would land. To my amazement, I escaped without injury or damage to my car.
In the car with my missus driving, there was a flat bed in front of us. I don't know how but I knew something bad was about to happen. Told her to change lanes and as she did the tire blew on the truck. Outer tire rolled of down the road. A gas bottle on the back of the truck flew of the back and bounced like a basket ball 4 or 5 times in our direction. We passed it safely. It was still bouncing, so I hopefully no one else hit it after we carried on. We overtook the truck but it seemed like he was carrying on with basically a wheel missing. Dangerous place to be the road. Vigilance is required by everyone. Unfortunately it's not always the case.
That thumbnail goes absolutely WILD. And it's not even clickbait. 😳
Ikr, I was like how the heck did they get that high and how since the car was opposite rotation it should have been

@@williamsherman9514 textbook example on how to instantly let people know you’re annoying
Comes back for more.
Truck had extreme modified offset wheels which puts a heavy load on the spindle and axle bearing. The lost wheel assembly still had the rotor and spindle bearing attached. These modifications are extremely dangerous causing severe changes in steering geometry and stress loads on bearing parts.
Well said
I can’t believe I had to scroll so far to find this, the driver is responsible because there’s no way these were DOT legal modifications, and obviously they were shoddily done.
The fact that this comment was buried so deep is really sad. Truck driver is 1000% at fault for this. Just looking at the video, you can tell this truck has been modified, and I’m willing to bet it was done in his driveway, instead of by a professional.
The G-force must have been incredible...😢
Liking and commenting to boost this comment. This is such important context.
Some people just don’t know how to modify their cars. Those spacers are irresponsible. What’s worse, it looked stupid before the wheel flew off, much more so after.
The fact that something like this can just happen to you for no reason just makes it even more terrifiying
Not no reason. The driver of the truck was operating it negligently. Full well knowing there was a problem with the tire. Whether it was not properly secured lug nuts or a broken a hub bearing, the driver knew. But they made the conscious decision to drive anyways.
Also, our whole development pattern post world war 2 makes imagining not needing to drive 60mph every day just to live seem impossible.

The blame should be on the truck owner for ignoring that grinding noise he’s been hearing for 2 months 🙄
just looking at how high the suspension is raised on that truck clearly indicates some sort of modification. But It is impressive how the kia flew up that high... even more so the driver surviving without serious injuries. vehicular safety has progressed a lot
The truck also had spacers to make the wheels stick out further to the sides. That puts more stress on components and the components themselves are probably aftermarket and may not be high quality or correctly installed.
@Antonio-Gransci Agreed. Unnecessary modifications that turn a vehicle into a more deadly hazard for everyone else on the road should make the owner criminally liable. Spacers that make wheels stick outside the wheel wells even when straight and lift kits that cause your bumpers to be higher than everyone else's probably shouldn't be street-legal.
Oh wow one freak action and you wanna change the laws
It’s not like it happens more than school shootings
@@Sashazurno spacers on that truck, the wheels had a positive offset that put the wheels further out. You can tell by how “deep” the face of the wheel is. Wheels like this do add extra wear on the bearings, but it doesn’t appear that the hub came off, just the wheel.
Lol, that truck is not raised. The roof is only slightly higher than the Kia, definitely stock height. The aftermarket wheels are taller than factory, but only raise the truck by a couple inches if that.
You can see the brake disc still attached to the wheel which means it was a wheel bearing failure.
The bearing failed most likely because of the excessive unsprung weight and offset of the aftermarket wheels and tires.
This means that every time it goes over a bump the bearing experiences a twisting force rather than one lined up with it.
Yeah, looks like a shitbox job on the truck mods nearly killed another driver... yet that somehow isn't being pressed?
you nailed it....should be at the top of the comments
im not entirely sure but i think i could be a wheel spacer, which is a useless thing that attaches to the bearing but only to push the wheels out for aesthetics.
Brake disc is still attached, but the extra weight likely didn't cause the bearing failure. The axle nut needs torqued to a specific spec otherwise the bearing will fail. My guess is that Jim Bob, Joe Bob, Billy Bob, and Bob Bob didn't torque it properly when installing the lift kit.
As a car mechanic, I agree with that reasoning
In Germany, we have something called Tüv, but it's a major inspection that is done by different organizations. In America, you should have this too. Every 2 years you have to take your vehicle to a Tüv station where an engineer inspects the vehicle for safety and exhaust emissions. This costs around 100 euros and after passing the test you get a new sticker on your license plate. Okay, a rim that doesn't belong on the truck has fallen off. However, the brake disk was still on the rim. So I conclude that there was something wrong with the suspension. Such damage is noticeable and can also be heard and felt when driving, long before it ever comes to such a drama. The Truck would not have never ever passed a TÜV inspection in Germany.
I hope the driver can recover emotionally. That had to have been terrifying. Amazing no one was seriously hurt.
I'm seeking revenge
I don;t think recovering from this accident will be hard for either party - no one was seriously injured, and no law penalties will happen to anyone (most probably). So actually they will be happy with the outcome (they survived), and will retell the story as a heroic deed. I am quite sure both of them will be ok - with even possibility they will become friends - as it clearly was an accident, with no evil intent

Exactly 😂
I fell riding lime scooter to work hit my head, concussion, ambulance to ER, 7 staples in my head, AND MY BOSS STILL WANTED ME TO COME IN AFTER I WAS DISCHARGED SAME DAY.
Glad everyone involved is ok. I’ve never seen anything like that before, talk about one-in-a-million odds. That tire had to come off at just the right time & the Kia had to be in just the right place to make that happen. Absolutely crazy.
It's a message from the universe. Don't drive kias.
And there was someone with a dash cam right behind them too. Crazy
And the tesla had to be there to record it. NUTS!
They finna be hella paid!
…plus…the tire came back and hit the car again…like it was on a demonic string or program…thanking the Lord that everyone walked away with minor injuries and ALIVE…!❤
Good job Kia safety engineers! Really impressive to walk away from that kind of violent roll-over wreck!
KIAs are like tanks. Even in car chases the cops couldn't stop them.
Always wear seatbelts.
WTF that's horrible engineering how can a wheel get underneath their vehicle and flip it over that's so stupid why would you commend the engineering when a wheel can launch their vehicle that high in the air
@@gradyjackson8517 What do you expect to happen when a tire rolls in front of a moving car? You think engineers can overcome the laws of physics lol.

I have horrible, morbid, anxious thoughts about this exact situation when I'm on the road sometimes. Freaks me the hell out, thank god this woman was ok.
This brings back a terrifying memory of my own. I was driving on a major freeway, about six car lengths behind a car towing a boat on a trailer. I saw a wheel came off their trailer and come flying my direction, bouncing from one side of the lane to another. The trailer frame hit the road and began throwing sparks and a cloud of metal debris. I did my best to dodge it all, although it was impossible to know where any of the bouncing material would land. To my amazement, I escaped without injury or damage to my car.
I got so scared while reading this. Glad youre ok
In the car with my missus driving, there was a flat bed in front of us. I don't know how but I knew something bad was about to happen. Told her to change lanes and as she did the tire blew on the truck.
Outer tire rolled of down the road. A gas bottle on the back of the truck flew of the back and bounced like a basket ball 4 or 5 times in our direction. We passed it safely. It was still bouncing, so I hopefully no one else hit it after we carried on. We overtook the truck but it seemed like he was carrying on with basically a wheel missing.
Dangerous place to be the road. Vigilance is required by everyone. Unfortunately it's not always the case.
Your intuition saved you both a lot of trouble. 👌
@@THEDOORIZCLOSED Thank you. It was an experience I'll never forget.
I can see it all now 😧
That’s terrifying! I’m glad everyone is ok.
I'm glad the car okay
