A wheel-off truck accident occurs when a tire and wheel assembly detaches from a commercial truck while it’s in motion and strikes another vehicle, pedestrian, or property. These incidents are especially dangerous because the wheel often becomes a high-speed projectile, causing catastrophic damage.
Wheel-off accidents typically happen due to:
- Improper installation of lug nuts
- Over-tightening or under-tightening
- Worn or defective wheel components
- Failure to inspect or maintain the truck properly
These crashes are preventable—and they usually point to negligence.
