It turns out the driver was only 13 year old. Apparently the truck suffered a blowout of the left front tire, which was a spare, at high speed right before the crash.

Before anyone asks, driving on public roads is illegal at that age, even in Texas.

Toyota Motor Corp. and Nissan Motor Co. halted operations at plants in northern Japan after a magnitude 7.4 earthquake struck off the coast of Fukushima prefecture late Wednesday.

Work at Toyota’s factories in Iwate and Miyagi prefectures was suspended late Wednesday and resumed in a limited capacity late Thursday, spokeswoman Shiori Hashimoto said. Toyota’s popular Yaris compact car is among the vehicles made at the plants.
