As I went by I asked "got a flat ?" he said "No, that wheel and tire are gone" Hmmmm wonder how he never felt it.

I was in Hammond, LA yesterday at the Petro and a driver drove in. He was missing tires and a brake hub from the trailer. He told me that he never even knew they were gone till he did the same thing. Got out to take a leak and he had to take a double take.
I showed him photos of my wreck from a guy who lost his brake hub.
I spoke to the Petro guy later and he told me that this guy didn't have a mechanical problem he just didn't check/look at his lugnuts on his pretrip.
