Man Killed in Motorcycle Accident on Highway 358 in Corpus Christi, TX
Corpus Christi, TX -- February 24, 2023, a man was killed due to an accident where a motorcycle crashed along the highway.
Initial details from authorities said that the crash happened along Highway 358 near Everhart and Staples Street at around 10:00 p.m. Investigations right now show that a man, believed to be in his 60s, was on a motorcycle going eastbound on the highway. The motorcycle somehow crashed into a median barrier, ejecting the rider. That man died as a result. Currently, additional details are unavailable.
It may seem obvious if all I say here is that there is hopefully a thorough investigation into what happened. But I want to say that specifically here due to the victim being a motorcyclist. I've known so many safe riders over the years who were hurt due to factors completely beyond their control. Yet time and time again, people simply blame the motorcyclist without even knowing the facts. Making assumptions about all riders only leads to important information slipping through the cracks, which is why it's important to consider if authorities handling the accident will ensure no sort of bias influences their investigations.
