Info from Licensor: "We had just passed the Highway 427 exit, when we came up behind this SUV. I noticed that the hazards were on, so I expehttps://youtube.com/watch?v=XkCI_fhpRqwcted to see the skinny spare tire on it. As we pulled up on the left to pass it, I noticed the wheel wobble moments before some bits (lug nuts and bolts) flew off. I followed the bits with my eyes and one slammed into my car (seen in the slow-mo bit at the end). As we passed him, the sparks were flying and we could hear the grinding. Then the wheel separated from the truck, and crossed all the lanes and bounced into the centre median. Luckily it stayed in there and rolled along for some time, and did not bounce over the bar."
