Motorcycle rider killed in Norfolk car accident


Posted on Apr 28, 2009

A two-vehicle crash earlier this month claimed the life of a motorcyclist in Norfolk, VA.  The rider, Christopher M. Gallagher, 33, was speeding on Ocean View Avenue when he hit an SUV making a left-hand turn.  The SUV was traveling eastbound when the accident happened.

 

The accident occurred at the intersection of 17th Bay Street and East Ocean View Avenue.  Gallagher, studying to be a doctor in the Navy, was pronounced dead at the scene.

 

The investigation is ongoing and it is not yet known if charges will be filed.  Police believe that the victim was speeding on his motorcycle, which contributed to the crash.

 

According to the NHTSA, failure to follow speed limits is often a factor in motorcycle accidents across the country.
