Hacienda Heights, CA – Motorcyclist Injured in Hit-and-Run Wreck on 60 Fwy
Hacienda Heights, CA (June 4, 2019) On the morning of June 4th, a hit-and-run wreck happened on the 60 Freeway. A silver Mercedes SUV, potentially a GLC500, switched lanes and collided with an oncoming motorcyclist. Somehow a Toyota Corolla was also involved in the accident and sustained damages along with a popped tire. The crash happened at approximately 7:41 a.m.
When emergency crews arrived, they found the motorcycle and Toyota Corolla blocking the HOV lane after the crash. Unfortunately, the Mercedes fled the scene without checking to see if the others were okay. The paramedics found the motorcyclist injured in the roadway and immediately transported the rider to the closest hospital for treatment.
The California Highway Patrol are still investigating the collision and searching for the driver in the Mercedes.
We wish the injured motorcyclist a complete recovery.
Hit-and-Run Accidents in California
Unfortunately, studies reveal that California is the leading state with the highest number of hit-and-run accidents throughout the nation. Hit-and-run accidents usually occur when drivers know they’re at fault for an accident and attempt to flee the scene in order to avoid the consequences of their actions. Sometimes drivers are wanted for other crimes and know that they’ll be arrested if they remain at the scene. However, when drivers leave, they make matters harder for everyone else involved.
