Tolland, CT — A motorcyclist was injured in an accident with another vehicle in Tolland, Connecticut, on Wednesday, July 29, 2015. The accident took place on Route 74, at the intersection of Route 30, around 8:00 in the morning.
Police responding to the accident have identified 42-year-old John Olynyk as the rider of a motorcycle that was headed west on 30 when it crashed into an eastbound Subaru that was turning left onto Route 74.
The crash sent Olynyk’s bike beneath the Subaru. He suffered minor injuries in the accident, although it’s not clear if he was taken to the hospital or not.
It doesn’t appear as if Gerry Lejole, the driver of the Subaru, was hurt in the accident.

This accident happend when the sun was out, and on a pretty clear stretch of road. So I’m a little confused as to why the driver of the Subaru would turn in front of the motorcycle, rather than just let it pass. In any case, people tend to have a bias against motorcyclists, and will blame them for accidents even before they know the details of what happened. In light of that, the investigation into a crash is always going to be very important. Evidence will ultimately decide a case one way or the other, so that needs to be collected sooner rather than later.
