Four vehicles sustained damage while travelling along Highway 400 in Innisfil Thursday morning after a wheel came loose.

Provincial police are urging motorists to have wheel nuts checked regularly and retorqued after the latest incident along the 400 at Highway 88 in Innisfil.

According to police, the male driver had just had work done on the car's wheels and had driven only about 40 kilometres before it flew off.

No injuries were reported.

A similar situation happened last week when a wheel came loose from a van travelling southbound along the 400, south of Barrie at McKay Road, and struck a northbound SUV, sending three people to the hospital.

Police described the injuries in that case as minor.
