‘They left me for dead’: DoorDash delivery driver seriously injured in hit-and-run crash

WACO, Texas (KWTX/Gray News) - A DoorDash driver in Texas survived being involved in a hit-and-run crash on his motorcycle, and he is asking the person who failed to stop to come forward.

The collision happened shortly before 11 a.m. on Tuesday. Waco police say the driver has not yet been identified.

According to police, the driver failed to yield the right of way to Aaron Ayres when he was traveling on his motorcycle on Mountainview Drive.

The driver performed a “rolling stop” at an intersection, police said, and continued straight into Ayres before driving off without stopping.

“They left me for dead,” Ayres said. “You can kill somebody. You almost killed me.”

Ayres has no recollection of the incident; besides what witnesses have told him.

The delivery driver survived the crash, but he was given eight staples in his head and has been left with cracked ribs and a concussion.

He says he is lucky to be alive.

“They gave me a CT scan and all that stuff, X-rays, things like that,” Ayres said. “I don’t remember any of it though.”

Ayres has been a DoorDash delivery driver for about a year and says reckless driving like this has been a daily sight.

According to Ayres, he has come close to being hit numerous times, but this time, it came true.

Waco police say they are continuing to investigate the crash while looking for the driver involved.
