I was hoofing along the M57 today when all of a sudden the steering goes wayward, loads of banging and vibrations and plumes of smoke from the front right....Lucky enough the two lanes I was careering about in where clear and I managed to get it under control and onto the hard shoulder whilst noticing something black in the rear view mirror flying through the air.  Genuinely thought I had lost a wheel or at least the tyre had blew out until I got out to see the wheel arch liner had gone and was currently causing mayhem in the middle lane . I was about to call the traffic plod to get it off the carraigeway when a 38 tonner kindly minced it up good style.

End result =skiddy undies, melted plastic all over the tyre, a chunk out of the exhaust heatshield and a bit of the inner wheel arch bent out, can't see any more damage but will have a better look tomorrow. Really surprised that something so flimsy could really mess the steering up as it did and suggest you make sure yours are secure!!!

If I'd been going to my mum's, I'd have said "Look at that stupid tw*t leaving bits of car all over the road. They should have their licences taken off them", and then gave you the finger as I sailed past.
