The driver of a Toyota 4Runner left netizens speechless after recording a video showing his car driving straight, despite the steering wheel being turned sharply to the right.
The clip was posted by Mike Usoff on his Facebook page. In the footage, it’s clear that the Toyota 4Runner is having serious alignment issues.
Still, the driver is seen driving straight on a highway at over 120 km/h. “Maybe it’s time to check the alignment,” he joked in the caption overlaying the video.
Mike’s post has already accumulated more than 300,000 views, over 50,000 likes, and hundreds of comments from users who were shocked by the scene.
“I was expecting the wheels to shake with the mud-caked rims,” admitted one Facebook user. “Hey, you’re going [120 km/h] and it’s not shaking. It can’t be that bad!” joked another.
“Buying a Jeep would solve that. Plus, you’d have a real off-road vehicle,” suggested a third user. “That’s why I bought an [all-terrain vehicle],” wrote another.
Although Mike’s video has a humorous tone, performing wheel alignment and balancing is a crucial task that should always be done when the driver notices that the steering wheel is not in the same position as the wheels.
Even if you always drive on highways and paved streets, this imbalance naturally degrades over time. Besides damaging the condition of your car, driving with an misaligned steering wheel can present many safety challenges on public roads.
