The motorcyclist was thrown from his bike and died at the crash scene. The pickup truck caught fire and became engulfed in flames. No other serious injuries were reported in the accident.

Motorcycles are a common mode of transportation across our state. Many motorcyclists enjoy riding in the year-round temperate weather that Florida offers and many motorcycles can be seen on our roadways on a daily basis. Despite their popularity, a motorcycle can also be an extremely dangerous and deadly vehicle. According to statistics, more than 500 people will lose their lives in Florida motorcycle crashes each year.  The dangers of motorcycles are further supported by the fact that nearly 15% of all deadly accidents in Florida involve motorcycles. Drivers should always remember to use care and caution whether they are riding a motorcycle or sharing the road with one.

We wish to offer our most sincere condolences to the family who lost their loved one in this Miami motorcycle accident.
