There were two motorcycle accidents in Shreveport/Bossier this weekend, and today's accident involving a downed Shreveport police officer brings the total to three in less than a week.
KSLA News 12 has confirmed that a Shreveport Police motorcycle officer has been involved in a major accident involving a pick up. The accident happened at the intersection of Fairfield Ave. "The key to budget travel is to plan onward. When it comes along to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved vacations and/or going to see new spots we have never been before, the fact of cost and budgeting is often in the back of our thoughts. Organizing and spending our travel budget wisely is a main concern for most families. Reducing expending and expenses, while still delighting your vacation to its fullest, is the key to certain achievements and fiscal liability. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The reasoning regarding economizing money while traveling is simple: Even if your personal finances is extremely tight, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or departing the homestead! Also keeping in mind that while traveling, regardless of whether on a funds or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a big vacation or travel costs!..". and Olive St. shortly after 7 a.m. this morning. The officer was taken to LSU medical center, and has been identified as Corporal Breck Scott. As he was turning onto Olive street, a truck headed in the opposite direction pulled into his lane, hitting the motorcycle, and throwing him off the bike. Scott has been on the police force for 6 years, and has been a motorcycle officer for the past 4 years. Scott suffered a broken leg. The other driver was cited with failure to yield.
On Friday evening a motorcycle accident sent two riders to LSU Medical Center with serious injuries after they were rear ended by a hit and run vehicle at a stop light, pummeling them into a vehicle in front of them. The accident happened at Creswell and Piermont just before 10 pm. Police say the driver of a dark colored Buick was driving recklessly at a high rate of speed when he slammed into the back of the motorcyle that was stopped at a red light. One rider is said to have possibly lost a limb. The driver of the Buick was stopped about two blocks down. He claimed he was being chased, but witnesses say otherwise.
According to KTBS news a motorcycle rider was killed in Bossier City Saturday afternoon after annother driver turned in front of him. The accident happened shortly before 3 p.m. at Benton Road and Interstate 220. Bossier City police said the motorcyclist was southbound on Benton Road and approaching I-220 when the driver of a 2004 Subaru Forester turned in front of him. The motorcycle crashed into the Subaru. The motorcycle rider was pronounced dead at LSU Hospital in Shreveport. The driver of the Subaru, 76-year-old Manfred Kurt Johncher of Bossier City, was taken to Willis Knighton Bossier hospital. His injuries are not believed to be life threatening, Police Department spokesman Mark Natale said. Johncher was ticketed for failure to yield."
This has got to stop. The Motorcycle Awareness Campaign is an organization that promotes awareness of riders in the area. It focuses on educating the public about our presence on the roads, and imploring them to pay attention. Erin Fowler, who was in an accident in November, in which her husband Mike was killed, is working locally to get education in the schools. I have a yellow MAC sign in my yard that says "Look for Motorcycles, they're everywhere". What are you doing to promote awareness?
