So far this year, there have been 462 motorcycle crashes resulting in 22 fatalities, 13 of those deaths just since Memorial Day. Utah could be on course to break a tragic record.
"If we continue on that same trend with motorcycle fatalities, through this summer, this is definitely going to put us ahead of last year, which last year was kind of a record-breaking year for us," said Sgt. Cameron Roden, a public information officer for the Utah Highway Patrol.
"It's a shared responsibility when it comes to looking at what we need to do to change that," he said."For motorcyclists, the message we have for them is to make sure that they are obeying the laws of the road. We've seen a few that their speeds were too fast for the conditions," Roden said. "We are seeing too many deaths, too many injuries," Young said. "We all need to have some patience, have some kindness. We want to share the road and we want to be safe as well."
