A motorcycle rider was found lifeless on Interstate 635 after a fatal crash last August 2, according to the report released by the Mesquite Police Department.
Police said that a 2008 Kawasaki ZX600 was seen traveling along the highway when it veered off the roadway and crashed into a concrete culvert. When they arrived at the 19000 block of the west service road of Highway 635, they found the rider with serious injuries. He was pronounced deceased by emergency crews. His identification has not yet been released pending notification of his next of kin.
No one else was injured.
Mesquite Police Department Traffic Unit is still determining the reason why the rider lost control and left the west service road.
A local news source said that this is the 6th fatality crash of 2019, resulting in six deaths, as compared to five fatality crashes for the same period in 2018, resulting in five deaths.
With sincerest sympathies, we would like to express our deepest condolences to the families of the deceased. We strongly believe that the Mesquite Police Department will do everything to bring those responsible to justice.
According to statistics, at least one person dies from a car accident every two minutes. Most common causes of Texas car accidents include unsafe lane change, following too closely or tailgating, failing to yield, and speeding. While on the road, it is important to avoid any form of distractions and be completely aware of our surroundings. We have to be reminded of how our choices while behind the wheel can affect other people’s lives.
