WTHR | Caught on camera: Bicyclist hit by car on Indy's east side @WTHR13News | Uploaded 3 days ago | Updated 23 hours ago
An Indianapolis man captured a terrifying moment on camera as he was hit by a car while riding his bicycle on the near east side of Indianapolis.
Jakob Morales was riding on Brookside Parkway South Drive, near North Rural and 10th streets, around 7 p.m. Sept. 11 when he was hit by a gold Chevrolet.
"They started their turn way over there. By the time I realized what was happening, I was right in their line of travel. They didn't have a front headlight, so I didn't know what was happening. I ended up on their front windshield," Morales said.
He shattered that windshield and rolled off the side of the car and somehow landed on his feet.
"It was a lot of fear, you could see it in my face. I was scared and bracing for impact," Morales said.
To his shock and disbelief, Morales said the driver never slowed down or stopped to see if he was OK.
