A tire came loose from a truck at Tanah Merah Coast Road

Singapore: A tire was spotted free-roaming at Tanah Merah Coast Road almost hitting a cyclist along the process.

In the dashcam footage, a tire was captured on camera suddenly coming loose from a truck travelling at Tanah Merah Coast Road. The tire dislodged from the truck, and started rolling towards the left lane towards a cyclist that was travelling on the cycling lane.

The cyclist was not aware of the tire moving towards him from his rear and looks like the tire is going to crash right into the cyclist. It was a close shave as the tire changed direction and move inwards away from the cycling lane.
