Two motorcycle riders injured after being hit by Jeep driver
Posted on Apr 30, 2010
A woman with a BAC well over the legal limit has been charged in relation to a crash that injured two motorcycle riders in the Virginia Beach area.
The woman, Juanita Demastus, 53, is in city jail right now with a May 10 court date. She has been charged with driving with a BAC between 0.15 and 0.2, which is well above the legal limit in Virginia in 0.08.
According to police, Demastus hit a motorcycle with her 1997 Jeep Cherokee when returning home at about 9:15pm. Demastus caused the crash when she pulled out in front of the Harley-Davidson motorcycle, which was traveling south on Rosemont Road. She was headed west on Bancroft Drive, and should have yielded the right-of-way.
The motorcycle riders were unable to avoid the Jeep, and crashed into the side of it. The motorcycle driver had to be taken to the hospital by ambulance, and was left with head injuries. His passenger was released after being treated for minor injuries.
After causing the motorcycle wreck, Demastus fled the scene of the accident. She was later arrested by police in the 600 block of Grant Ave. after being reported by one of her neighbors.
