So coming back today I swerve to miss this huge metal infested tire that apparently came off a truck... ok fine.
Well not 3 minutes later there's the truck it came off of, smoking like hell from the tire that came off with piece of other tire stuff still flying off... He didn't pull over immediately and my g/f said maybe he's just trying to get to the next exit... which he did and didn't stop... well he kept going and going until he went onto Oakland at which point I hit the bay bridge so didn't know or care. People were honking at him, and I distinctly saw him look over to the right side into the mirror, but we came to the conclusion that he just didn't give a shit and was still going to drive.
Now my question is it legal for semi to keep going? I would think not only would it be unsafe for him but for others on the road as piece of rubber come flying off.
