Bakersfield Man Injured In Lerdo Beech Crash

He was riding a motorcycle eastbound in the right lane when a 17-year-old driver crossed the path at Beech Avenue, hitting Bates and ejecting him onto the road. The juvenile driver, from Bakersfield, reportedly stopped at the stop sign but did not see the motorcycle. The collision caused the car to swerve, a pickup truck to spin, and Bates to be hospitalized by ambulance.
