Fatal I-94 Motorcycle Accident in Kalamazoo

I saw a story on the news over the weekend about a tragic and Fatal I-94 Motorcycle Accident in Kalamazoo on Thursday, August 13th. According to the Kalamazoo County Sheriff, the biker was eastbound on I-94 when traffic allegedly slowed down abruptly and he was unable to slow down in time before running into the car in front of him. He sustained serious, life-threatening injuries and was taken to Borgess Hospital where he later died. Police are still investigating this accident.

I am very sorry to hear that this tragic motorcycle accident happened. My condolences go out to the family and friends of the biker.

Kalamazoo County Motorcycle Accident

Motorcycle safety is foremost in my thoughts this week as I keep seeing signs asking drivers to beware of bikers.  It reminded me of an article today about a Kalamazoo County Motorcycle Accident in which a 36-year-old biker survived a head-on collision when Ford Expedition, driven by a 17-year-old, allegedly did not see him and turned in front of him. The motorcycle accident occurred at the intersection of 33rd Street and Michigan Avenue in Comstock. The biker was taken to Bronson Methodist Hospital for treatment of serious injuries. According to police, the teen was issued a citation.

I am very sorry to hear about this Michigan motorcycle accident and wish the biker a speedy and complete recovery.

Kalamazoo County Drunk Driving Accident Injures Biker

Michigan motorcycle accidents seem to get reported almost daily once the warm weather in Michigan.  Most of these motorcycle accidents are caused by negligent motorists and truck drivers who ignore the rights of bikers on our roads.  In many cases, Michigan motoryclists are injured due to drunk drivers.

A 21-year-old Mattawan biker was injured in a Kalamazoo County Drunk Driving Accident in Texas Township on Monday, June 1.  According to the Kalamazoo County Sheriff, the biker was travelling westbound on Third street when a pick up truck, driven by a Kalamazoo man, allegedly failed to yield the right of way to the biker and turned in front of him off of Q Avenue. The MIchigan biker tried to stop but was unable and slid into the truck. The biker was taken to a local hospital for treatment of his injuries. The pick-up driver was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving.

I am very sorry to hear about this Michigan motorcycle accident and wish the biker a speedy and complete recovery.  This is an accident that should have never happened.
