Meet the Judge, Jury and Executioner in TX

Driver Who Swerved And Hit A Motorcycle Charged With Aggravated Assault

He told News 8 some sort of insect bit him near his groin as he was driving Saturday, which caused him to jerk the wheel and swerve into the left lane. He said he had absolutely no idea a motorcycle was on his side.
“I can’t do nothing about what happened. It wasn’t automatic,” Crum said. “I didn’t try to hurt anybody. It was a reflex from the pain.”

Not very apologetic about it being an accident when he's first confronted.

I read somewhere that there was a history between the car driver and the cycle rider. Not the first meeting. I saw the video. It is damning. I'm not sure if I would have had the restraint the riders did after that incident.

I guess he was going to show the biker what's what . .

Crum told CBS Dallas Monday he's seen other motorcyclists on that road doing "wheelies at 60 mph, and I thought he was one of those. I didn't know there was a passenger."

Somebody needs to tell him not to do any more interviews.
