One person was hospitalized following a dangerous apparent road-rage incident that was caught on video Wednesday in California, KTLA reports. Tim Morrison and Chris Traber were on their way to work in Santa Clarita when they saw a car cut off a motorcycle. The situation looked like it was escalating, and they started filming.

The video shows the motorcyclist attempt to kick the side of the car. The car then swerves into the motorcycle, loses control, hits the median, and heads back into traffic, where it slams into a truck, flipping it onto its roof. The driver of the truck suffered multiple injuries. Morrison says it was "pretty intense." The motorcyclist never stopped, and the California Highway Patrol is investigating the incident as a hit and run. (More hit-and-run stories.)
