Arundel, ME - Motorcyclist Hospitalized in Accident at Alfred & Limerick Rds
July 19, 2024

Arundel, ME (July 19, 2024) – The York County Sheriff's Department reported a serious motorcycle crash on Thursday afternoon, July 18.

Officials say a motorcycle driven by a 24-year-old man from Lyman was driving east on Alfred Road at around 4:45 p.m. Thursday when the incident happened.  According to early investigations, a Kia Forte driven by a 57-year-old woman of Alfred allegedly pulled into traffic ahead of him from Limerick Road. Unable to stop in time, the man's motorcycle collided with the Kia.

The man was brought to a Portland hospital and remains in critical condition. Meanwhile, the driver was treated for unspecified injuries at a Biddeford Hospital and released. Alfred Road (Route 111) and Limerick Road in the Arundel area were shut down while officials cleared the scene and reconstructed the crash. However, the inquiry into the accident is still ongoing, and no additional details have been provided to the public.

Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their loved ones at this time.

Motorcycle Accidents in Maine

Maine is a favored destination for motorcyclists due to its miles of coastline roadway, gradual slopes, and wide highways. Visitors from all over the country visit Maine, which has 59,000 registered motorcycle riders. Nevertheless, the frequency of motorcycle accidents that result in fatalities or grievous injuries is increasing as motorcycles become more prevalent. Tragically, the rate of motorcycle accidents has increased over the past two decades, with recent years claiming exceptionally high rates, according to data released by the Maine Department of Public Safety and the Bureau of Highway Safety. Regrettably, this pattern is observed in all counties of Maine.

To comprehensively review your legal options following a motorcycle accident, you must retain the services of a personal injury attorney who is both knowledgeable and competent. When a motorist disregards traffic laws or drives recklessly, such as passing on a blind curve, a significant accident may occur.
