Caught on Camera: Swerving car sends pair flying off motorcycle

GRANBURY, Texas – A woman was hospitalized after a car veered into the motorcycle she was riding on a rural back road in North Texas on Saturday.

Eric Sanders, the driver of the motorcycle, suffered abrasions on his back in the crash that left his girlfriend, Debra Simpson, in Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital in Fort Worth awaiting surgery to repair a broken wrist and deep arm lacerations.

Sanders said the crash happened about 4:30 p.m. Saturday on a county road about 5 miles (8 kilometres) north of Granbury.

Dramatic video recorded by Sanders’ friend Brian Fisher, who was riding behind him, showed the motorcycle Sanders was driving and on which Simpson was a passenger passing a car on a two-lane road when the car veered into it, upsetting the motorcycle and sending the riders into the roadway.

No arrests were made at the scene.
