A tire flew off a speeding driver's car and struck another car's windshield, Utah troopers said. The driver was 'traveling too fast' when they lost control of their car on Interstate 15 in Bountiful, the Utah Highway Patrol said in a Wednesday, Jan. 18, Facebook post. The driver struck the highway barrier, which sent the front driver side tire, with the rim and tie-rod attached, flying into another vehicle in southbound traffic, troopers said. Troopers said the driver in the other car suffered a cut on her head from the incident.
