Luckily I had slowed down to 30mph because my car was vibrating so badly. Landed in a small ditch instead of plunging into the reservoir or hitting the large tree I was headed for.

Glad you're safe. Hopefully it doesn't cost too much for the repairs.

Scary. A few years ago I was behind a Ford SUV when a tire came off the rim. We were on the interstate and it was night. Crowded in Seattle. I had no where to go but over it.

Glad you're okay! That's real dangerous, glad you weren't in the middle lane surrounded by traffic or anything. Also am glad you didn't spill your beer! That sucks about the lug nuts... who put that tire on anyhow?
