Georgia Man Killed In Motorcycle Wreck Tuesday Evening

Georgia injury lawyers know that sometimes no matter how careful you ride, you can lose your life in a motorcycle accident. On Tuesday of last week a Georgia man was killed when he lost control of his motorcycle on Interstate 95. Jonathan Holifield, 22, was pronounced dead at the scene just south of Bryan-Chatham county line on I-95 north. The accident occurred at 6:38 p.m., according to the Georgia State Patrol. According to an article published by the Effingham Herald, a witness told troopers that two vehicles in the left lane moved into the middle lane, where Holifield was riding, and one of the vehicles struck Holifield’s motorcycle; however, troopers found no evidence of damage to the left side of the motorcycle. Given that there were lane changes from the vehicles, it is believed that Holifield apparently took evasive action to avoid a collision and subsequently lost control of his motorcycle
