Michael Breeden Passed, 38, Away
WEST PALM BEACH, FL (Boca Post) (Copyright © 2023) — A Motorcyclist has died days after a high-speed crash on Military Trail.
According to the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office, Michael Breeden, 38, of Lake Worth was traveling north on Military Trail at a high rate of Speed. At the same time, another vehicle was initiating a U-turn at the intersection of Military Trail and Kelmar Drive in unincorporated West Palm Beach.
Witnesses on the scene stated Breeden, who wasn’t wearing a helmet, appeared to be traveling at a high rate of speed on this Motorcycle. Investigators say that Breeden failed to brake prior to the impact with the Toyota Corolla. Breeden collided with the car, front wheel, and fender to the passenger side C pillar. Breeden was ejected from the motorcycle and was vaulted over the car.
Breeden was transported to St. Mary’s Medical Center in critical condition where he died a week later.
Here is my question or thought on this. If your going to make a u-turn in an area that is not an intersection with traffic lights or stop signs, why would you pull out in front of a vehicle that seems to be moving at a high speed and expect them to brake or stop for you?
