Delaware OHS Issues Safety Warning After Deadly Motorcycle Crashes

DOVER, Del. — Delaware’s Office of Highway Safety (OHS) is sounding the alarm for both riders and drivers to pay closer attention on the road as motorcycle traffic picks up during the height of summer.

The agency issued the alert following a string of recent crashes that left one motorcyclist dead and two others seriously hurt in separate incidents.

Officials say the summer months bring a significant increase in motorcycle activity, making it especially important for all road users to remain aware of their surroundings and share the road with care.

The OHS is reminding drivers to watch for motorcycles, particularly when changing lanes or making turns, and is encouraging riders to follow safe riding practices at all times.
