A Wisconsin man was killed when he was thrown from his motorcycle, according to the Langdale County Sheriff’s Office. The man was driving on Highway A when he failed to negotiate a turn properly.
The man was riding his motorcycle eastbound on Highway A when he lost control of the vehicle. The man rode into a ditch where he was thrown from the motorcycle. He was not wearing a helmet at the time of the motorcycle accident.
Officials say that the man died at the scene of the accident. Unlike automobiles, motorcycles do not have restraining devices or safety features to protect riders when motorcycle accidents occur. As a result, it is incredibly important that motorcyclists wear helmets when going for rides.
In addition to wearing helmets, another way motorcyclists can avoid serious injuries from motorcycle accidents is by taking a motorcycle safety course. During motorcycle safety courses, riders learn how to handle curves and road hazards so that they can avoid accidents altogether.
