A witness informed the authorities that a motorcyclist was traveling at high speed northward on Route 45 and momentarily lost control of his 2007 Harley Davidson on the west side of the pavement, according to police.

After managing to regain control, the motorcyclist proceeded north, passing Dada Drive. However, when attempting to maneuver through a curve, he veered into the southbound lane and collided with a 2005 Nissan Rogue, police reported.

The Lake County Sheriff’s Office Technical Crash Investigations Team is investigating.
