Sanders said his girlfriend had to be airlifted to an intensive care unit following the crash and suffered a broken wrist. The man said several times that he didn’t care, and justified his actions at one point by saying “I got stung by a wasp”.

Sanders – who was driving the motorcycle – attempted to pass the vehicle before it swerved toward the bike, throwing his girlfriend and him on to the road.
The accident and the callous reaction by the driver were recorded by another motorcyclist, a friend of Sanders, according to WFAA.
A Saturday afternoon ride on a Texas highway ended in shocking fashion when a auto swerved into a passing motorcyclist, sending the rider and his girlfriend passenger crashing to the road. A video shows the motorcycle passing a vehicle on the two-lane road.
The road rash and deep cuts all over Eric Sanders’ body only begin to tell the story.
‘You will care, ‘ Fisher responds before he takes a picture of the man’s license plate.
Sanders’ friend then confronts the driver on camera.
Sanders wasn’t completely in the right – he was attempting to pass traffic in a zone with double-yellow lanes.
The Texas Department of Public Safety are now investigating the video and will use the clip as a central piece of evidence.
“They’re anxious about infection”, Sanders said. The driver could face felony charges.
