Well-dressed fellow rips boot off car so as not to miss his flight

A former boss was booted once and he took the wheel off, put his spare on, and drove back to the office. He then had somebody in the shop cut the boot off and put his original wheel back on. It’s been almost 20 years since I worked there, so I have no idea if anything ever came of it.

… which explains why, since almost 19 years ago, boots have been designed so that they cover the wheel nuts to prevent exactly that.
