There’s been no word on his current condition.
The accident is still being investigated.
Scene of the Accident
Commentary
There are a few things that could have happened here. It’s possible that the driver of the van just wasn’t paying attention, and changed lanes thinking that no one else was there. Motorcycles are fairly small compared to other vehicles, and it’s possible the van just didn’t see him. However, this accident is the perfect illustration for why people should do a better job looking around then, even when they think there are no other vehicles close by. Now, if the van is found to have caused the accident, it will be up to them to make it right.
