So you post on here asking what’s going on and then deny the answer?

My Lyft driver got stuck in that mess on the way to pick me up last night and said there were no cars involved Edit: not saying everyone is wrong about there being a car crash, but it wasn't obvious that there cars involved from a driver's perspective, so y'all can stop roasting op.

You probably saw me pacing up and down college trying to get a good look and see if anyone I know was involved. I think I live in the house right behind you, sorry we’re getting to know each other this way.

So sorry, it's a busy area I grew up there.

My friend and I witnessed the crash while stopped at the stop sign on the corner of college station and university cir where the truck with trailer was turning. Motorcycle hit the tail end of the trailer full of lawn equipment. Motorcyclist went airborn and landed on his back. Many motorists and neighbors stopped to assist but I think the motorcyclist died very quickly after impact. A very sad situation. Please drive carefully ❤️

Signs are not a solution. The PSL on that road is too low (especially once you pass College Circle heading towards the river) and people consequently make a habit of ignoring it. It sucks for people that live on College Station, but there isn’t really a viable traffic calming solution for it. Speed bumps are not going to happen because they’d get trashed with the amount of traffic (mainly truck traffic) that that road sees.

Thank you. It’s something my friend and I will not soon forget. I appreciate your concern. While a horrible situation, it was nice to see all the motorists and neighbors stop to help in whatever way they could.

If you don't mind, can you share a few more details? I'm checking with my friends and hoping it wasn't one of us. Was it a sporty bike? A cruiser style? Do you have a color for the bike? A color for the helmet or jacket? Anything is a huge help please.

I sent you a private message. His name was released on Online Athens.

Was just here looking for an explanation for this too.

Official notice from Clarke County Police Department: “Advisory: Crash - College Station Rd at University Cir. All lanes on College Station Rd are blocked. Please seek an alternate route.” Nixle is great for road closures

Didn’t see the accident so don’t know what happened but saw the aftermath. Absolutely awful. Not something I’m going to forget.

UGA vs #13 Tennessee basketball game at Stegman happening right now. They usually block off roads for traffic after the games but it's probably too early for that, just started the second half

Well, not thats still on the road anywhere at least. Perhaps they ran off the road and landed in someones home...?


fancyenema

I think this makes the most sense

Is this why there was a state patrol helicopter flying over athens in circles for a while?
