    I wonder if he had two hands on the wheel at the time the tire blew and he could not hold it, or not? Doubtful we will ever know.

    The amusing thing in that video is he drifted for a while before he hit the grass, Makes me wonder why he did not pull slightly harder on the wheel, Maybe no power steering ? Or he had his feet up on the dash driving with his pinkie why texting his girl in another state.

    One reason I rarely run against the governor, personally.

    I blew out a passenger side steer tire on I-90 a few years ago. I'm not exactly sure how I did it, but I got it to the shoulder safely and didn't even scar the rim. Probably more luck than anything else.

    "Thankfully, the driver made it out with just a few scratches and says the dash cam footage may have saved his job."

    They should fire his ### just for listening to that God-awful "music".....
