You can edit videos on Youtube. It will be compressed by default, then just trim the segments before and after what you want to keep. I use Insta360 Studio because I have one of their cameras.

A guy at work had a semi tire come off and hit his car a few years ago. It totaled the vehicle and actually injured him, including breaking some teeth. Those loose tires are no joke.

Scary for sure.

Reminds me of an incident about 20 ago. I was riding my Harley on the freeway when a washing machine fell off a truck hauling a dumpster full of scrap metal😲. Luckily I was able to evade it.

That would have been one He!! Of a spin cycle.....

Glad you were able to avoid the flying donut!

No. The way it was bouncing, I felt that if I tried to slow down it would hit the front or come thru the windshield. So I kept my foot in it, and got past it. I haven't pull the chip out of the rear-facing camera to see what havoc it caused behind me.

That would be very interesting. I am gonna update my old cam with a dual channel cam 📷

They offered me a chance to review it for the forum. I had to pass because I couldn't commit to their timeline. It looks impressive.

I actually won this G900 TriPro WolfBox Dash Cam from a promotional contest WolfBox sponsored in this MTC forum months ago but just worked up the nerve to install it since I wanted a very clean installation with all the cables tucked behind the trim once I started the install I found it wasn’t so intimidating and got it done now waiting on the OBD II Port adapter today that will power it so I can remove the temporary 12V Cigarette Plug

I'll throw my $0.02 in...
We put forward and rear facing dashcams in all of our cars. Decided the Rexing that Best Buy offers was a good one. After any incident or something like that tire, we can pull over and transfer from the SD card to our phones.
I'm pretty sure better pricing could be found with a little looking.

Wait... if the Gov't got rid of pennies and now everyone is rounding up or down, is $0.02 worth anything now?

A view from the back camera. Thanks for all the suggestions, I may look into putting them on YouTube. The good news is, it bounced a couple more times, then rolled off onto the right-side ditch. The cars in the right and center lanes had stopped, it passed in front of them, causing no damage to anyone. Except my underwear,,,,,,

I've got to figure out how to shorten/compress my dashcam video, but here is a screen shot of a wheel & tire headed my way today, from the trailer in the center lane,,,,,,

Wow.
Not a laughing matter.
But my initial response was to laugh out loud.

What a shot!

Once upon a time...

I was doing 65 or 70 MPH.
The Ryder / Penske box truck in front of me dropped its drive shaft.

The driveshaft's forward motion with rotating gyroscopic action kept it parallel to the road long enough for me to straddle it, harmlessly passing over it.

In my rearview mirror I see the driveshaft gain some traction and roll across all lanes.

Round down = $0.00
ETA: $0.025 would now be worth Twice as much!

You can download directly wirelessly without pulling over, if there are two of you in the car. It does stop recording when you do that though. I also find that I have to disconnect the phone from Sync before it will connect to the camera. I believe that camera is specially packaged with a direct-wire kit for Best Buy, so it's a better deal than some that don't include it.

One of my relatives had their car flip when it hit a rolling tire. He was on a dark road when he saw headlights coming at him erratically weaving. Didn't see the tire coming and didn't know what happened till he gathered his wits and climbed out of the car. The approaching vehicle apparently lost the front wheel which kept going in a straight line. Insurance company totaled his relatively new Tesla.
