Two schoolgirls injured after truck tyre hits motorcycle in Samut Songkhram

Two schoolgirls were injured when a tyre detached from a 10-wheel ice truck and struck their motorcycle on Ekachai Road, near Samut Songkhram Polytechnic College. The incident, captured on CCTV, resulted in the girls being thrown off the motorcycle, suffering abrasions and bruises. The truck driver, Mr. Channarong, explained that the tyre came loose while transporting ice. Police have charged him with reckless driving causing injury. The motorcycle driver, Mr. Saman, initially thought the noise was a transformer explosion before realizing the tyre had hit the motorcycle. Legal action is underway.

 

The tyre came loose?

 

Was it on a wheel rim or being transported? How does a tyre come off it's rim?

 

Seen wheels come off, seen tyres get shredded, but never seen a tyre 'come off' its rim?
