Truck with a tyre missing spotted carrying crates of beer on Lagos-Benin road
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh previously reported that a truck without 1 tyre at the back was seen carrying crates of beer on Lagos-Benin road.
In the video shared by @instablog9ja, the truck continued on the road despite losing one of its rear tyres, exposing its iron wheel.
The absence of the tyre at the back tilted the vehicle a bit to the side and it seemed as if everything was going to fall off the truck.
At the front of the vehicle is also another truck. A breakdown in that condition would have caused great havoc.
