White R34 On Lane Cove Road Tonight

[zei20l]

So it held my bus up, apparently a wheel came off and struck a child. I hope its no one from here!

I pity the driver and hope the kid is ok.

Hope everything turns out OK. Be interesting to know how the tyre came loose.

Every day when i walked home from school i was always worried that something like that would happen. (well, that or a car crash that went off the side of the road)

Probably didn't do the wheel nuts up right. The same thing happened to my dad as he was towing a trailer one day, wheel came off it. wobbled for about 5 seconds, then started rolling forwards, from what i can remember (was 6-7 at the time). Luckily it didn't hit a pedestrian. It did hit a fence with a fair bit of force though.

My brother lost a wheel once while driving... It rolled through an intersection and into the side of a van.

He claimed it on insurance

This was his car at the time

We haven't stopped giving him shit about it yet
