Interesting traveler going down the freeway.

Ill bet youve heard of the story many times .In front of me about 200 yards I catch site of what I think is a Motorcycle rider in the fastlane ,I begin to slowly gain up and as I do what I think is a rider starts moving over lanes with me, Im know getting up in better view to realize its a semi tire and rim making its way down the freeway .I hit my brake lights a couple of times to let the traffic behind me get the idea of upcoming hazard ,I pass by it and watch in my rearview as it rolls and jumps onto the access road ,followed by a drainage ditch .Just a mile ahead I see the Detached semi that had lossed it ,he was checking the back of the rig were he probably had it bungy corded ,not chained.He wasnt going back for it ,he was just making sure the tie downs were not getting in the rigs rims, some truckers kill me.
