Julian Motorcycle Accident Kills San Diego Man
A 28-year-old San Diego man was killed in a fatal San Diego County motorcycle accident on State Route 78 just east of Pine Hills Road in Julian. The deceased, identified as Carl Davis Jr., was riding a 2007 CVR 600 motorcycle when he was hit in a head-on collision. He died at the scene.
This serious traffic accident happened on Saturday, January 30, 2010 around 12:30 p.m. According to California Highway Patrol Officer Brian Pennings, Carl was eastbound on Pine Hills road when he suddenly crossed the double yellow line and was hit by a 1976 Chevrolet pickup. A witness told the California Highway Patrol Officer that Carl had passed him at a high rate of speed and soon afterward his motorcycle crossed into the oncoming traffic and was hit by the pickup. In his defense, the driver of the pickup, Dean Young, 47, of San Diego said that he “was unable to react in time to avoid a collision with the bike.”
Our office wishes to convey our sincere prayers and condolences to the family and friends of Carl Davis Jr. The number of catastrophic motor vehicle accidents that take place in San Diego County due to speeding is on the rise. Poor decisions, like suddenly switching lanes into oncoming traffic, can lead to disastrous consequences and, as in this case, even death.
