As it tries to accelerate past the Silverado, the front wheel on the side of the Kia car falls off and hits the car, tossing it into the air.

Due to the high speed of the car, the vehicle doesn't stop instead it keeps on flipping on the highway. Later on, because of the moment it drifts ahead. This is when the runaway tire of the pickup truck comes and hits the car again. Meanwhile, the Silverado rolls ahead without the front tire scratching the tarmac.
