Three motorcycle crashes in two days killing three motorcyclists should remind us all to drive smarter and safer.
On Saturday night in Wesley Chapel, a sport utility vehicle making a U-turn struck and killed a motorcyclist on State Road 54, near Old County Road 54. Turning to head in the other direction, the SUV pulled into the path of a westbound motorcycle. As a result, the motorcyclist, 22-year-old Robert Adam Szymanowski III of Land O'Lakes, collided with the front right side of the SUV. Sadly, Mr. Szymanowski died at the scene.
Also, a Clearwater man died in a motorcycle crash on I-4 exit ramp on early Sunday morning after he lost control of his motorcycle. According to reports, Ryan Sorsby, 26, was driving on the Interstate 4 westbound ramp to Interstate 275 south around 3:30 a.m., when he lost control his motorcycle while attempting to negotiate the curve. He was thrown from the 2002 Yamaha R1 and flipped over the concrete barrier wall under the I-275 underpass. He died at the scene.
On Sunday night, a motorcycle accident in front of Sutherland Elementary at Belcher Road and Grove Boulevard in Palm Harbor killed the motorcycle driver dead and left the family without a loved one.
Three crashes with three deaths. However, the impact of these accidents reaches far past the death of the motorcyclists. Parents of these three motorcyclists can no longer talk to their child. If there were a surviving spouse, he or she can no longer kiss their spouse good night. If there were any kids, they no longer have a parent to turn to in times of need. Friends of these motorcyclists will also have their lives changed forever.
It is important that we all drive safely and watch out for motorcyclists. A few extra minutes can save a lifetime of pain and sorrow.
