A 65-year-old Fullerton man has died after being involved in a motorcycle accident on the 91 freeway, according to a news report.
The California Highway Patrol said that Jackie Walters was riding his motorcycle on the eastbound 91 freeway when an out-of-control car cut directly in front of him, causing his motorcycle to strike the driver’s side of the car. He was taken to UCI Medical Center in Orange, where he later died.
The car who hit Walker, a 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse, was driven by a 26-year-old Buena Park woman who drove the car onto the right shoulder of the road and hit a concrete barrier, which flattened her right side tire. She swerved to the left and hit Walters’ motorcycle; she sustained minor injuries in the fatal motorcycle accident.
