Did anyone encounter the fiery motorcycle accident on 45N at Exit 60A/Aldine Bender at around 3:00 PM?
Any news on the driver?
I saw him weaving through traffic at high speed. A minute or two later, traffic halted abruptly. I saw one or two people running around in the HOV lane (I thought some crazies were up to something), then I saw smoke that got thicker and thicker. An 18-wheeler in the 2nd from the left lane was stopped about six cars a head of me with its driver door open, and other drivers were attempting to merge over to the furthest right lanes to bypass. When I got to the accident, I had to move over to the exit lane just a few feet from the wreckage, and I could feel the heat from the flames permeate into my car. Past the wreckage, I saw about three or four vehicles pulled onto the right shoulder. Not sure if they were involved or directly witnessed the accident. I just got home, and I didn't see anything on the news.
