A 47-year-old Daytona Beach man was killed on Tuesday night after crashing his motorcycle on an Interstate 4 entrance ramp in Orange County.
The single-vehicle crash occurred at around 10 p.m. on Tuesday, August 12, on the I-4 Eastbound entrance ramp from State Road 536 (mile marker 67), according to a report from the Florida Highway Patrol.
The man was riding a 2006 Honda CBR600 motorcycle on the I-4 entrance ramp when he failed to negotiate a curve in the roadway. As a result, his motorcycle veered off the entrance ramp and onto the grassy shoulder.
During the crash, the man was thrown off the motorcycle. He was transported to Orlando Health Dr. P. Phillips Hospital, where he was pronounced deceased.
An FHP trooper mentioned in the report that the motorcyclist was not wearing a helmet at the time of the accident.
The crash remains under investigation, according to FHP.
