I've been riding cycles for the better part of 20 years. In have no idea what caused the crash & I empathize with the motorcyclist & who else may have been involved. I do strongly recommend that anyone who plans to ride, who does ride, start by paying $25 to the Motorcycle Safety Association (MSA) to develop good habits before learning bad habits. It has been $25 since I started riding. Time is denotated by experienced riders. My wife & I do about 6500 miles a season on a 1994 bike bike. Plenty of close calls saved by the training I recieved from MSA. The idea is to prevent the un-necessary crashs.

I drove by there at about 6:00 and it is the Zeeb Road exit that is closed, not the freeway. Traffic on I-94 and M-14 was backed up and very slow going.

Probably because they had re-opened the freeway by 6pm
