Terrible.
Terrible.
Prayers for all
Prayers for all
A women in a dually ran a red light at Sierra hwy and sand cyn. Hit and killed a man on a motorcycle who was making a legal left hand turn. After hitting that man she hit my boyfriend head on!
That is so terrible and sad! Why would anyone run a red light? Prayers to the motorcyclist and family and to your boyfriend! I hope he is ok!
So sad. I hope your boyfriend is ok. So many people run red lights in this area. I don’t get it, is it worth the couple minutes you might save?
We saw it about 20 min after it happend, very sad…I think a case of too much vehicle for the driver to control.
Does anyone know who the motorcyclist was? My little brother rides his around town but he isn’t answering his phone. Or the color of bike
Devastating!!!
Hi Melissa he was at home sleeping. Only going to ACH gets Adam Akira Kakiki out of bed that early. Prayers to the parties involved. You’re a great sister and I know how you feel. I saw a motorcycle accident on 14 at Placerita last week and got worried but thank goodness it wasn’t him. Hugs girlie.
Ugh. Terrible
What color was the bike?
It’s so sad! Prayers to the family of the motorcyclist! We are so thankful that my boyfriend’s work truck is quite a beast. He’s sore and banged up, but alive! The lady was going 45-50 mph. Hit the bike, made a slight left and went head on. The man was decapitated! I’ve seen so many people run that light. Sierra hwy has gotten very bad! We live in Agua Dulce and travel it daily.
Do you know the name of the motorcyclist? Trying to see if it’s a friend.
I see it everyday…it is terrible. Glad your boyfriend is okay. I hope she goes to jail.
Omg…how aweful!! Prayers. Melissa Clark praying mama it’s not him.
Erika, how awful!
Shawna not something you expect to get a call about…ever! The trusty ford saved Dustin’s life!

Prayers to the family circle…accidents happen. Everyday…please be cautious and aware out there…every soul is precious…
I’m confused if he was making a left hand turn I would guess going onto sand canyon and if she was going straight they have the same color light? So they both ran a red? So sorry about your boyfriend hopefully he can recover from witnessing this horrible accident
Omg how awful! So sad! Stupid driver, hurting innocent people!
Assuming he was making a left onto Sierra hwy from sand Cyn.
The lady in the dually was going north on Sierra hwy. Her light was red. The bike was coming down Sand Cyn making a left onto Sierra hwy (south).
Prayer to you all…
Best wishes to your boyfriend for a full recovery and peace for his mind, I can’t imagine being involved/witnessing something so tragic. Prayers for everyone involved and their loved ones.
That makes more sense. So sad. She has to live with this everyday of her life knowing her careless actions took someone mans life.
Safety first my motorcycle friends.

OMG. That explains why I couldn’t get onto Sierra hwy this morning.

This is why I ride with my brights on in the day time, and wear neon. Yet people still look right at me and proceed to try to run me over.
That is so inconsiderate! Most motorcycle riders I see do wear bright colors, Have their lights on and are watching around them. Least we in cars can do is courtesy on the road, geez, what is wrong with people? I have never understood the bad attitude towards motorcycle riders, especially in SoCal of all places!
Oh some of them deserve the bad reputation. But not all do. I don’t even split lanes at red lights, except the time I was getting away from a psychotic former friend. I don’t need respect from other drivers, but I don’t need to get killed by their carelessness/stupidity/cell phone, or whatever the case may be. I have a mother and daughter that kinda like having me around.
I wanna have this quote put on a tshirt.. I rode from Scv to Hollywood this morning at 7a and home from there at 5:30p.. I swear this is the caption of the whole 75 mile ride.. It’s funny but at the same time it’s scary as f*** out there..
I’ve been finding myself having less tolerance for drivers on the phone as well.
Collin Fowler – this was the reason Sierra Highway was closed this morning.
Always crazy right there. Nobody cares because the chp which covers that spot doesn’t care. Never any enforcement there. I surprised it doesn’t happen to more people honestly.
Agreed! I’ve personally seen people fly over the double yellow lines to pass people going 500mph on a blind turn, and CHP just watches it happen and doesn’t do crap about it. I’ve complained to CHP about it but they ignore it.
My husband saw this.. this morning before they covered up the scene not much will affect my husband but needless to say when I talked to him thins morning he was in shock and dumbfounded prayers to the family’s and all involved :'(
I pray God will comfort your husband and give him some peace as well. That had to have been really difficult to see
I live at that corner there are always accidents there. People never slow down even during school time since mint Canyon is right there.
Cell phones are a big factor in a lot of accidents too. I hope this one wasn’t but regardless, stay off cell phones while in the car please.

The lady never tried to stop to avoid the bike nor my boyfriend’s truck. She wasn’t going slow either.
Any news on the name of the motorcyclist? I have many friends in SCV who ride. This is sooo sad! Sending prayers to all!

Prayers to all the victims..that accident happend by were i wrk..close to our landscape yard ..3 of my coworkers saw everything..the news i found out is too fatal..its scary too scary for the motorcyclist..may god be with him and the rest
his name was Leo he was a good family man. we spoke continuosly about family matters. how much he cared for his family. Leo worked beside me at ATT. Truly a better man never lived. His two children just inherited a bunch of Uncles
It was sad. I live right there. He was decapitated. Worst thing I have ever seen . Drivers think this is a freeway. Got news for you. It isn’t. Slow down
Rip
The lady ran the red light! Smashing the motorcycle between the other truck. The rider was decap. R.I.P!!
OMG!!!
It happened outside my residence. I didnt realize it was so close. I happened to walk to the store and made the mistake of looking that way and saw the blue tarp in the street and a red helmut. I was traumatized and disturbed that this sole lost his life, took hours for a coroner to show up, but most disturbing were the gawkers and picture takers. God Bless to the families and loved ones. I am saddened that people felt the need to snap pictures of someones end of life. Why?
people are so stupid. honestly. no respect for anyone or anything.
Terrible :'(
Hey, I’m not a local. Can someone tell me what happened?
r.i.p.<|3
People need to slow down, put down the cell phones, the make-up and pay attention to their damn driving. I pray for the person who lost their life because of the dumb woman who was in a hurry.
This sad part is his son died 15 years ago on a motorcycle RIP Art prayers to your wife.
Please watch out for bikers as you drive . So tragic. I ride myself , my friends and family rides and some drivers are just so careless . We all share the road . No texting and driving
That I can understand to watch out for bikers.
That was my brother on the motorcycle and he was cleared 100% !! He was making a LEGAL left turn and that woman ran the red light and hit him. We are devastated as is my 85 year old mom and his two children. Please pray for us.
This is horrible and I’m wondering what caused the decapitation. Did some part of the truck (such as the side mirror) hit the biker’s head, severing it? Also, does anyone know if criminal charges will be brought up against the driver of the dually? At the least, I would think there would be Gross Negligence or Involuntary Manslaughter charges brought against the person. She ran a red light!
prayers for everyone involved. This was especially horrific for the emergency services workers involved. God bless them.
they haven’t released a name, but I heard it was a 57 year old man who works for AT&T on his way to work. Prayers for comfort for all affected.
Does anyone know what happened to the woman who ran the red light in this situation?
It seems there is no follow-up on what kind of penalty she had to pay besides “living” with this tragic death.
Thanks.
