Is it me or does there seem to be an unusually high number of motorcycle accidents lately? Regrettably we have another one to report. A three term Michigan lawmaker, Rep. Peter Pettalia was killed while riding on M-33 South in Montmorency County.
A motorcyclist is in critical condition after being rear-ended on Dort Highway yesterday evening. The motorcycle was at a complete stop while trying to make a left turn. One car behind the bike went around the cyclist which caused the second car to slam into the stopped bike.
The accident happened at roughly 2:30am this morning at North McKinley Road and West Carpenter Road in Flushing. The people involved sustained minor injuries.
