A woman was killed near here a few years ago by a big rock tossed out of the wheels of a logging truck. Went through the windshield and smashed her head. She was passenger, husband driving, kids in the back. They all must have PTSD.

FWIW, logging truck drivers are supposed to check all wheels before going on the highway.
