Agree with the “blatantly illegal”. Had that happen on the highway with what appeared to be a brand new garbage truck. Guess maybe they were test flying the truck with some crap tires…? Truck in front, me in one lane, and a sheriff car next to me. Heard some noises and then saw a tire shredding. Piece bounced off my fairing (hd bagger) and the rest went into the sheriff’s car. They both pulled over and I was lucky to escape and kept going.
You’re ok, thats the main thing.
