A truck carrying a high load of crates of beer moving on the Lagos-Benin expressway has generated massive reactions from Nigerians.
In the video shared by @instablog9ja, the truck continued on the road despite losing one of its rear tyres, exposing its iron wheel.
What a mess
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.

Man disobeys traffic rules
Meanwhile, it was earlier reported that a video that went viral online showed the moment a man was serving a punishment for disobeying traffic rules on a road controlled by the army.
In the video description shared by @instablog9ja, it was revealed that he swerved into another lane that was not his and the officer caught him.
As his punishment, he was made to stand on the roof of his car and wave at all the vehicles passing. It was such a hilarious sight.
