A motorcycle accident attorney would come in handy following a truck-versus-motorcycle crash in Apple Valley, California, that left a biker fatally injured. The incident took place on the afternoon of Saturday, May 16.

Officers responded to the crash at about 3:51 p.m., on reports of a traffic collision on Deep Creek Road. The San Bernardino County authorities confirmed that one person later died in a hospital as a result of the ghastly crash.

Preliminary investigations revealed the fatal victim was travelling along Deep Creek, in a motorcycle. The rider approached a curve near Rock Springs Road, and was attempting to turn left onto the adjoining street when he veered into the path of a truck. The two vehicles collided violently, knocking the motorcyclist off his motorbike.

He suffered major injuries, and responding paramedics transported the victim to Desert Valley Hospital in critical condition. The man died shortly after while undergoing treatment at the facility.

Authorities identified the deceased as Carl Nielson, a 38-year-old resident of Apple Valley. Police failed to disclose the identity of the truck driver or his condition after the tragic collision. The reports did not ascertain whether or not impairment played a role in the crash.

The California Highway Patrol is heading the investigation into the incident. Possible witnesses with useful information that could help solve the case may contact the Victorville CHP office.

Victims of traffic wrecks involving a motorbike should endeavour to consult a motorcycle accident attorney to look into the investigative process, and ascertain the liability of such occurrence.
