A couple of years ago a woman was driving from Bethesda Md. into Virginia along the Capital Beltway. She was killed by a wheel. A man driving in the opposite direction towards Maryland had a rear wheel come off and bounce across the median and land on the woman's roof at the top of the windshield killing her. Several other drivers were able to avoid the wheel bounding along the road. She was survived by her husband and two kids.
The State Police investigated and the man had recently had his small pickup truck inspected, where two wheels are pulled on one side to check the brakes. I can't remember the final outcome, wheel loose or axle popped out.
So be careful with your suspension bits. The life you save could be a strangers.
