AVONDALE, AZ — A serious multi-vehicle collision involving a motorcycle occurred Friday on westbound Interstate 10 in Avondale. According to Arizona Department of Public Safety (AZDPS), witnesses reported the red sport motorcycle had been weaving between cars and illegally splitting lanes at high speeds prior to the crash.

The rider lost control and collided with multiple vehicles before coming to rest beneath a semi-truck trailer. Emergency responders arrived quickly and transported the motorcyclist to a nearby hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Troopers are reminding the public that lane splitting is not legal in Arizona and poses extreme risks to motorcyclists and others on the road.

“This is a preventable tragedy,” said one AZDPS official. “Motorcycle riders must obey all traffic laws. Reckless behavior endangers lives.”

⚠️ REMEMBER:
