Default Downed rider on 5 Fwy


So I was traveling north bound on the 5 freeway this past Saturday. I came up on an accident scene, and saw several cars pulled off to the side, then saw a few motorist crouched down over a guy in full leathers, still with his helmet on lying motion less on the road. His bike was a good 40 yards down the road I'd say. I've been searching for any news online, I was wondering if any of you guys may have heard anything either on the news, or any bike forums you may be part of.

Nope. But good to hear the people crouched over the guy left his helmet on.

It's a big world, mind giving us a general idea where highway 5 might be?

I would guess that he's talking about I-5 in the Cali end.

Yup I was on the 5 fwy North bound hear in Socal heading from Orange Co. area up to LA. I'm thinking I was around Anahiem area at the time I saw the crash

Just a reminder, I-5 is a big road that covers 3 states and ends at a foreign border on each end. You may want to clarify where you see things next time.
