Motorcyclist forced to have leg amputated

Struck by hit and run driver on the S Beltway

[toosense]

While the loss of his leg is very tragic I hope he knows that in time he can learn how to do everything he did before, just with a prosthetic. My girl lost the use of her legs at 14, she would give anything to be in this guys situation. He can still walk, run, dance, ride, swim, drive, shower, etc. Life is still a blessing, push forward and don’t give up.

The person that tried to kill this motorcyclist is a coward and needs to be caught and brought to justice. Prayers for this young man.

Sending prayers in hopes he makes a good recovery and he gets justice for this accident

I think there’s more to this story than what’s being said here.

Hoping for his quick recovery
In a road rage between motorcycle riders and a car drivers, motorcycle riders always loses since a driver can use his car to knock the rider off of his bike and motorcycles provide no protection

Hey so I'm the guy in the video. Thank you to all of you that are sending prayers and well wishes it's much appreciated :) However there are some who think I deserved it or that I was doing something wrong. I wasn't. I was just on a ride with my friend because the weather was nice. I neither asked for or deserved this. Do you know how it feels to lose a leg to some jerk with a vendetta? And then see these comments? Thanks again for all the support from everyone. But let's look at some other perspectives before we judge people.

Better days ahead brother. Appreciate being alive. They do great things with prosthetics these days. You WILL ride again! You shift with the left foot. That can be changed to do it by hand and the right foot is where you need to feel that back brake. DON'T give up on your passion.

Sorry to see you lost your leg man! I know how it feels to be hit by hit and run driver. Just don't let it get you depressed and keep you down!!

1) 2 sides to every story
2) women’s version of events makes no sense and doesn’t add up
3)if they were racing or arguing that’s the risk y’all took. Some people aren’t gonna change their life and do the right things like turn themselves in especially if they feel like they’ve done nothing wrong or if you escalated the situation.

When the homies said break a leg, they didn't mean this way

The person that hit him most likely had paper plates and no insurance. Typical in Houston .

God bless you young man. i pray you recover well. this also happened to my little brother, he has healed well and has a good life. i pray you can do as well.

I’m so glad my brother sold his motorcycle. Every time there was a motorcycle down, I would be so scare it was him.
This guy losing his leg is not the worse. Brain injuries are the worse, spinal cord injuries are the worse.

Hope they find this person and pay for it. Praying for a fast recovery

It broke my heart to see this. I know what he's going through I had the similar thing happen to me. I'm currently in rehab for it.

I want a motorcycle so bad, but whenever you Google motorcycle, you just get stories like this.

May GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS AND KEEP YOU AND SAFE RECOVERY 💞🙏🏾

You can’t recoup on a crotch rocket as fast as a Harley! Be careful fellow riders! I just got back from Sturgis Rally, at least there everyone rides and respects each other!🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍. So sorry young man!! Get a 3 wheeler Can Am and you can still ride, it won’t be the same, but you can still ride!
