San Diego Motorcyclist Critically Injured in Collision with Pickup Truck
A motorcyclist was critically injured on Saturday night after colliding with a pickup truck in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of San Diego, according to authorities.
The incident occurred around 8:20 p.m. when a 31-year-old man was riding a black 2009 Harley Davidson in the southbound left lane of 200 Euclid Ave. At the same time, a 70-year-old man was driving a black 2005 Dodge Ram pickup truck in the northbound left lane of 200 Euclid Ave. The driver of the truck then crossed over a divided highway and into the dedicated left turn lane for southbound vehicle traffic, making a left turn into the path of the motorcycle, said the San Diego Police Department.
In anticipation of the collision, the motorcyclist dropped his Harley Davidson on its right side, slid about 40 feet, and then collided with the Dodge’s right side rocker panels. The motorcyclist was transported to a local hospital with a collapsed lung, a left thigh bone fracture, and a pelvic fracture, officials confirmed.
The San Diego Police Traffic Division is investigating the crash and anyone with information related to the incident is encouraged to call Crime Stoppers at 888-580-8477.
