Automotive: Kia Soul Goes Airborne After Smashing Into Runaway Wheel

A freak accident was recorded by a Tesla dashcam on the 118 Freeway near Los Angeles in California last Friday. The driver of a first-generation Kia Soul was minding their own business when a loose wheel from a modified Chevrolet Silverado smashed into the Kia. The poor soul driving the Kia Soul was catapulted up in the air like a toy.

According to Twitter user Anoop_Khatra who drove the Tesla that recorded the peculiar incident, the person behind the wheel of the Kia got out of the car without any serious injuries.
