Video Of Crazy Tow Truck Incident Goes Viral Because, As Noted, It's Crazy

A broken axle on a sedan led to perhaps the craziest towing video in recent memory.

On Monday afternoon, after a Saab broke down on the Interstate 610 loop in Texas, the driver called his girlfriend for help towing the vehicle as they could not afford a towing company, according to ABC Houston affiliate KTRK TV.

The couple apparently decided to tow the vehicle using a chain, but, at some point, an axel on the Saab broke, causing it to swerve back and forth between various freeway lanes, according to CBS affiliate KHOU TV.

“It was like err err, like losing control, I heard when his tire blew out, just lots of swerving,” Ken Collins, who witnessed the terrifying tow job, told the station.

TikTok user @cindyibarra22 posted a video showing how Mr. Tow’s Wild Ride looked from a Houston office building.
