ATLANTA — Finley Turner continues fighting through the painful injuries he sustained when he was hit by a car last month.
“How do you just keep driving after hitting someone in the middle of the road?” the 28-year-old asked.
Police and witnesses say a man in his 40's driving a white BMW SUV, hit Turner on I-85 while he was riding his motorcycle.
“I have two broken collarbones, I smacked my head pretty hard, I compound fractured my elbow,” he said.

But it’s the damage to his right arm could end his career.
He's a rope technician, hanging thousands of feet in the air on oil rigs or TV tower antennas.
He said, "I don't know if I’ll be able to close my hand again, with the nerve damage that has happened."
“He’s my best friend and I’m his best friend, and not knowing what happened took an emotional toll on everyone I think,” said Turner’s brother, Robert.
Channel 2 Action News was there as Turner went through his difficult and painful rehab appointment at Gwinnett Medical Glancy Rehab Center.
His family hired an attorney Evan Kaine to help find the person responsible to help pay for the medical bill.
“A $5,000 reward for any information that leads to the arrest of the person that did this,” Kaine said.
