Kentucky State Police are currently investigating a motorcycle accident that occurred Sunday afternoon and left one person injured. While state troopers have not released very much information due to the ongoing investigation, they have released details that they are sure of.

The accident took place on U.S. 60 right at the Henderson/Union County Line when a motorcycle was involved in a one-vehicle collision.When the accident was first reported, a helicopter was flown to the scene in order to transport the man to the hospital for treatment.

The pilot was later waved off and the patient was transported by ambulance to Henderson Methodist Hospital. There has not been any word on the man’s condition after the collision, but it is thought that he is still recovering in the hospital at this time.

While motorcycles can be an exciting way to travel, a motorcyclist must be cautious while on the roadway because they are smaller vehicles that can easily dodge in and out of traffic making it more difficult to be seen by other motorists.

Also, if involved in a collision, a motorcyclist has far less protection than other vehicles because they do not have a steel wall around them. This is why it is important to have knowledgeable representation on your side if you have been injured in a motorcycle collision.
