Flying tire wrecks SUV on Philadelphia highway; The Injury Firm asks who should pay

A roughly 21-second ABC News clip, labeled "Tire smashes into SUV on Philadelphia highway" and credited to D. Harris, shows a tire flying across a divided highway and crushing the front of a dark Nissan SUV. The impact is shown from more than one camera angle, with semi trucks visible in traffic, while a narrator describes the tire getting over the median before hitting the SUV.

A loose tire bounced across a Philadelphia highway, got over the median and smashed the front end of an SUV. The video, carrying ABC News branding dated July 29, 2026, was shared July 31 in a post by The Injury Firm with Juice Unlocked and several other Instagram pages.

The ABC News narration says it was unclear whether anyone in the SUV was hurt or where the tire came from.

The firm's take

The firm's caption calls it a truck tire and argues the crash may not be a freak accident: if poor maintenance let the tire come off, someone may be held responsible. It asked followers who should be liable (the truck driver, the trucking company or someone else) and advised talking to an attorney before talking to the insurance company.

“It's unclear if anyone was injured in that vehicle or where the tire came from.”
