Dallas Motorcycle Accident Sends Biker to Hospital

Posted on Oct 18, 2011

A Dallas motorcycle accident involving a wrong-way driver sends a motorcyclist to the hospital after the biker is hit head-on by an alleged drunk driver. The incident took place at approximately 1:00 on Thursday morning, September 29, 2011, in the Fair Park neighborhood.

According to local police, the driver of a white sedan was traveling southbound in the northbound lanes of Cullum Boulevard when he slammed into a motorcycle head-on, which was traveling in the left lane. The accident took place near the DART tracks, north of Grand Avenue.

Rescue crews transported the unidentified motorcyclist to a nearby hospital where the biker was treated for injuries sustained in the hit-and-run accident. The motorcyclist's condition was not immediately made known.

The unidentified driver was arrested after failing a field sobriety test. Police have indicated that the suspect could be charged with intoxication assault charges.

The Dallas motorcycle accident remains under investigation by local authorities. Police are looking into the possibility that the suspect may have been involved in an earlier wreck after noting fresh damage to the car, believed to be unassociated with the motorcycle crash.

This is an unfortunate accident, and we wish the victim a speedy recovery during this difficult time.
