Motorcycle Accident Lawyer Norman Gregory Fernandez posts recent California motorcycle accidentsOrinda, California

A motorcyclist who crashed on Bear Creek Road over the weekend has died from his injuries, the Contra Costa County Coroner's Office said today.
The 41-year-old Hercules man suffered head injuries when he motorcycle crashed into a guardrail Sunday afternoon on Bear Creek Road near San Pablo Dam Road. He died Monday evening at John Muir Medical Center in Walnut Creek, a coroner's deputy said.
The California Highway Patrol said Monday that the man was traveling too fast into a road curve where the posted speed limit in the area is 50 mph. The man's identity is not being released until his family is notified.
He was found unconscious around 3:45 p.m. by a riding partner who had been following him but who did not see the accident, the California Highway Patrol said. He was taken to John Muir Medical Center in Walnut Creek.
The CHP said the man was wearing a helmet but that it became dislodged in the accident. Friends described him as an experienced motorcycle rider.

Upland, California

Motorcyclist injured in crash on 210
An Upland man suffered major injuries Monday when he lost control of his motorcycle and crashed on the eastbound 210 Freeway. Authorities said he was driving at more than 100 mph when the crash occurred.
The crash was reported about 5:40 p.m. on the 210 just west of Benson Avenue, according to a California Highway Patrol news release.
Richard Saylors, 42, rode his 2008 Harley-Davidson motorcycle on a double yellow line that divides the car-pool lane and the fast lane at 70 to 80 mph and split traffic, according to the CHP release.
A CHP officer, on the west side of the freeway, observed Saylors riding at more than 100 mph in a reckless manner about 2 miles before the crash occurred, according to the CHP release.
A 2002 Chrysler Sebring was ahead of the motorcycle in the fast lane and driving about 50 mph when the driver turned into the car-pool lane, according to the news release.
Saylors hit the left rear end of the Sebring, overturned and was thrown on the roadway, according to the release.
The eastbound 210 was closed for 10 minutes while a helicopter landed to transport the motorcyclist to a local hospital, CHP Officer Jaci Parent said.

Richmond, California

The California Highway Patrol is investigating what caused a Sunday motorcycle accident that killed a man on Richmond Parkway, a spokesman said.
Craig McGiffin, 33, of San Francisco lost control and was thrown from his motorcycle into the roadway, said CHP Officer Sam Morgan. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The solo crash was reported around 6:50 p.m. as the rider was northbound on Richmond Parkway near Parr Boulevard. After the man lost control, he hit a curb, and the impact threw him into the center divider and a tree, Morgan said. No other vehicles appear to have been involved in the accident, Morgan said. Officials are investigating what may have caused the rider to lose control, such as a medical issue or distraction. The weather was clear at the time of the crash.

I know that it really sucks having to read about such accidents; however you will notice a common theme among all of these accidents. Take it easy out there folks. These are real bikers and motorcyclist who have been killed or seriously injured while riding their motorcycles. Speed Kills!

42...2008 Harley...more than 100 mph...major injuries....

Those few words, particularly the year of the bike and the speed, tell you a great deal about the dynamics of what went into that accident.

Come on, people! There are other ways of being cool, showing off your new toy, and breaking out of your mid-life crisis than being a jackass. The goal is to stay alive.
