A motorcyclist was killed Monday on Vasco Road just north of Dyer Road in Contra Costa County, the California Highway Patrol said.
Just after 5 a.m., a man in his seventies was traveling south on Vasco Road on his motorcycle when for reasons still under investigation, he left his lane and crossed over the northbound lanes, ultimately crashing into the east guard rail there. He was thrown from his bike and landed down an embankment. He was declared deceased at the scene.
After the collision, the man’s motorcycle continued to roll for a significant distance and ended up blocking the northbound lane, the CHP said.
The exact cause of the crash remains under investigation. No other persons were injured.
