Loose Tire Collides with SUV on Pennsylvania Highway, Captured on Dashcam

Dashcam footage released by local broadcasters depicts a tire that detached on Interstate 76 in Philadelphia and ricocheted across the roadway before slamming into the front of a gray Nissan SUV near Girard Avenue at approximately 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The incident was filmed by a Tesla driver traveling westbound on the Schuylkill Expressway, whose vehicle’s cameras captured both the tire’s erratic path and the subsequent collision.

A second video from the same event shows the tire narrowly missing other cars before the impact. Pennsylvania State Police have opened an inquiry to determine the tire’s origin and to confirm whether any occupants were injured. The clip quickly spread on social media after being posted by NBC10, prompting comments about the danger of the near-miss.
