Video shows horrific crash from the POV of a motorcyclist lucky to survive it
NX, which was stolen, had just been released from a rehabilitation clinic. In the video, he speeds through an intersection and attempts to maneuver between cars on the highway. He clips the rear of a grey pickup truck in his path. The truck hits Levey.
The SUV then slams into a 30-foot-high embankment, lands upside down, catches fire and explodes before passers-by can drag the driver out. He later died at a hospital, police said. Levey, meanwhile, was airlifted to a hospital where he had extensive reconstructive surgery to his shattered right arm and a badly damaged right foot, and was treated for a collapsed lung.
“The consensus was I wasn’t going to make it,” Levey told a KTLA reporter in an interview that aired Wednesday. The crash occurred last month. “I spent 11 days in the hospital and now I’m home. Eleven days ago, I didn’t think I was going to be alive,” he said. “I’ve got nine broken ribs, so I cannot cough, sneeze, clear my throat, blow my nose. Eating and drinking is a massive challenge. It’s very painful.
Levey said he is accumulating large medical bills. “To say I’m concerned about what my future holds is a massive understatement.“
