“I didn’t think I did anything heroic” She told Fox 35. “It’s just an instinct for me. You see something. You can help. You stop and aid. “

Still hospitalized and with significant pain, Johnson expressed a deep gratitude for Kent’s rapid response.

“Without his help, my leg would probably no longer have, and without anyone’s help, he would probably have been dead,” he said.

Johnson’s family has established a Gofundme campaign to help cover medical expenses and lost wages, although the total scope of his recovery remains uncertain.

This incident underlines the risks of motorcyclists along the way and highlights the importance of spectators in emergencies. Johnson and Kent now advocate greater awareness among drivers to ensure that motorcyclists receive the space and caution they deserve.

“Look twice, and if they are close, give them space,” said Johnson.

The authorities continue to investigate the accident when Johnson focuses on his recovery.
