A 60 year-old man driving a concrete truck that struck a motorcycle, killing the driver, has been arrested. The accident occurred late last week just south of Houston, Texas.

The driver of the motorcycle, a 53 year-old father of eight, was riding down Interstate 45 when the accident occurred. Officers believe the truck driver stopped after hitting the motorcyclist to move the motorcycle out of the road, and then kept driving. Law enforcement had no leads until they discovered a hotel’s security camera got everything on tape.

The truck driver has since been fired from his job and, if convicted of causing an accident resulting in injury or death, could face two to ten years behind bars and a $10,000 fine.

Our deepest sympathies are with the family and friends of the victim who died in this tragic accident.

A 46 year-old man is in the hospital and facing a felony DWI charge after he caused an car accident this past weekend. The man was drinking at a bar in Racine County and refused to take a SafeRide car home. Bar patrons, employees, and the SafeRide driver tried to prevent the man from leaving, but he got in his car and almost ran them over. A good Samaritan tried to follow him, but was unable to keep up as the drunk driver sped ahead.

The man ran a red light on Highway 11 before he rammed into a dump truck and was ejected from his vehicle. He is currently in critical condition and will face felony DWI charges since this is his fifth DWI citation.

Honda Motor Company has issued a recall of approximately 311,000 SUVs and Subaru is recalling nearly 500,000 vehicles, according to a report by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Honda Pilots made between 2009-2011 are being recalled for a possible seatbelt malfunction. The car manufacturer says that the stitching on the seatbelt may be missing or incomplete, which can cause it to disconnect from the anchor webbing. No injuries have been reported, but there have been at least two cases of the seatbelts becoming separated.

Surbaru models affected by the recall are 2010 and 2011 Legacies, 2002-2007 Imprezas, 2003-2008 Foresters, and 2005-2006 Saab 9-2z models. The Legacies may have defective wiper motors which, in the worst case scenario, can cause a fire. The other models are believed to have a possible danger of the front control arm corroding and breaking. If the front control arms break, it can cause the vehicle to lose control. Two cases have been reported, but no injuries or crashes occurred.

A new Wisconsin motorcycle safety program called THE REF, Transportable High-End Rider Education Facility, offers motorcycle safety lessons for both new and experienced riders. The program simulates driving on the road to help motorcyclists learn how to avoid accidents and learn new safety techniques.

THE REF has been in use since August 2010 and the Wisconsin Department of Transportation says that, so far, motorcycle fatalities are on the decline. At this time last year, there were 62 motorcycle-related deaths in the state. As of last week, there has been 46 deaths, 16 fewer than last year.

The Department of Transportation plans on taking THE REF to 60 locations across the state in order to raise awareness about motorcycle safety.
