Motorcyclist Seriously Injured in Frightening Crash on Bear Valley Road in Victorville

Victorville, CA – What began as a normal Friday afternoon ended in tragedy when a motorcyclist was seriously injured in a violent crash on Bear Valley Road, just east of Amethyst Road.
According to authorities, the accident occurred around 4:39 p.m. on October 10, involving a blue Suzuki motorcycle and a dark blue Honda SUV.

Investigators said the impact was severe enough to throw the motorcyclist from the bike, leaving them injured on the pavement as shocked witnesses rushed to call 911. Emergency responders arrived quickly, closing off the busy roadway to allow paramedics to treat the victim before transporting them to a nearby hospital for further care.

Thankfully, the driver of the SUV remained at the scene and cooperated fully with investigators. They were reportedly uninjured in the crash. Westbound lanes of Bear Valley Road were temporarily shut down, and traffic was diverted onto Pluto Drive as authorities documented the scene and gathered evidence to determine what caused the collision.

A Routine Ride Turns Tragic — Motorcyclist Thrown into Chaos

Witnesses described the Victorville crash as a “terrifying scene” as the motorcyclist was thrown several feet into the air after the impact.

“I saw the motorcycle slide across the road,” said one passerby. “Everything happened so fast — we could only pray the rider would make it.”
