Giants legend Lawrence Taylor was arrested in Hialeah, Florida yesterday for leaving the scene of an accident where he allegedly hit a car and then a guard rail. TMZ wants to assure us that he wasn't under the influence—police say he "was so coherent when he was arrested for hit-and-run last night , that officers didn't feel the need to perform a sobriety test." Plus "when they found Taylor, he was standing outside of his car -- which was missing a front tire. The tire was found at the scene of the crash .. which means Taylor may have driven several miles on just the axle." He was taken to the station house and released on $500 bail.

So he drove several miles on an axle ? Is that possible ?
Sober, yeah right.
my sentiments exactly.
Assuming that while the report says the tire was missing, it actually means both the wheel and tire (that is, the bolts holding the wheel on had sheered), he'd have been driving on the wheel hub. While that is part of the axle assembly, it's not just an axle as people might picture it if not familiar with how cars are actually put together.
The wheel hub is a circular, rotating part to which the wheel attaches. He was driving an Escalade, so it would be either rear wheel or four wheel drive and certainly could continue moving while dragging that hub on the ground. Slowly, noisily, and without much control.
I loved your testimony in My Cousin Vinny.
Yeah, right.
He needed to get somewhere to stash whatever drugs he was using.
Fucking scumbag.
Still the Baddest MF to ever strap'em up!
