"The motorcyclist dismounted his motorcycle and while standing in the No. 2 lane, was struck by an approaching Toyota pickup truck," Perez said. "The collision threw the motorcyclist into the No. 3 lane where he was struck again by an approaching Hyundai Sonata. The motorcyclist came to rest in the No. 2 lane and was later pronounced dead at the scene," he said.
A 2002 Mazda 626 and 2003 Honda Civic collided while avoiding the downed motorcyclist, but are still considered parties in the collision, Perez said.
