The 45-year-old man suffered serious injuries when his Harley-Davidson crashed on U.S. 301 Saturday night. His passenger also was hurt.

A 45-year-old Riverview driver and his 44-year-old passenger from St. Petersburg suffered serious injuries Saturday night in a motorcycle crash on U.S. 301.

The Florida Highway Patrol reports that Henry Dauberman was driving his 2005 Harley-Davidson, with Claudia Jean Poulin riding on back, when a white Ford Mustang cut in front of the motorcycle. Investigators say that the Mustang either made an "improper lane change," or "violated the motorcycle's right of way."

The motorcycle overturned, and the Mustang drove off. The accident occurred just south of Boyette Road, at about 8:15 p.m. Saturday.
