Jetta Driver Apparently Unconcerned With Lack of Front Wheel

From Road & Track

Look, we've all ignored a troubling noise or worrisome vibration in our cars. Sometimes you just need to get where you're going, and that low tire pressure light or unsettling shake in the steering wheel isn't going to stop you.

This situation is a little more drastic than that.

We don't know much about what's going on here, other than the very obvious: This Jetta driver is blithely barreling down the highway, sans front wheel.

At least the flashers are on?

YouTuber "Jonno," who uploaded this video way back in April, offers no explanation other than to point out how fast the Jetta driver is going-75 mph, with 25 percent of the normal wheel count missing.

Sheesh.

Judging by the body damage to the driver's side of this VW, this isn't the first mishap the poor sedan has encountered. How did that driver's-side wheel go missing? Why didn't the driver think it was reason enough to stop? How on earth is this car still rolling down the highway in the first place?

We don't have any answers. We just hope this bizarre situation didn't end in injury or harm to any innocent bystanders.

In light of this, maybe self-driving cars aren't such a bad idea.
