4:56 PM: Apparently not life-threatening injuries – police just told dispatch the rider has a “possible broken arm.” Northbound California is reopening to traffic. We’ll follow up with SFD.
This motorcycle rider almost ended up pancaked into the side of my car 4 blocks earlier; had I pulled into California 1/2 a second earlier.The motorcycle was traveling about 50 mph down the road and I just barely saw them before pulling into the road.It was a minute later when I caught up to the accident scene. I didn’t see the rider, but after seeing the bike in the ground, I am relieved to hear they lived.If you know this motorcycle rider, will you tell them it is a miracle they lived through this. If they don’t immediately change how they drive, it’s a matter of when, not if, they will die in a motorcycle crash.
I saw this crash happen and yes, this motorcyclist was flying down the road. I am so surprised he got away with just a broken arm. The person in the car he crashed into seemed to be slightly injured as well unfortunately.
Sorry, comment time is over.
