UPDATE: Early Sunday Morning Motorcycle Crash

Sergeant Kyle Evans told NewsRadio WGNS that as the motorcycle entered a curve, it failed to maintain it's lane and struck the outside curb. It then left the roadway where the male driver was ejected. It appears that during the course of the crash, the driver struck a utility pole next to the driveway of 911 E. Clark Boulevard.

 

Since motorcycle crashes often end in serious injuries, victims need immediate help

Motorcycle accidents are more likely to end in serious injuries or death for the motorcyclist, since the rider is not protected from the force of a collision. When a motorcycle accident happens, the injured rider needs immediate, appropriate medical care, the accident needs to be investigated, and the insurance companies need to be informed.

When a motorcycle crash is caused by negligence, additional steps need to be taken to protect the legal rights of the injured motorcyclist or the family members of someone killed in a motorcycle crash. Go here to learn more about motorcycle accidents and claims.

That's wonderful news! Thank you so much for pointing out the mistake, Lyric. Please accept our sincere apologies. Sometimes the early reports we depend on from local news sources have incorrect information, and we're not always able to check back with each and every story to make sure nothing has changed. For these scenarios, we depend on our readers to notify us. This type of misinformation is rare, but it does happen, and we're very happy to make this sort of correction! Our best wishes to Mr. Dixon on his recovery. Jane, Accident Data Center staff
