LUCENA CITY––A motorcycle driver died, and his backrider was seriously injured in a freak road accident Thursday in Carmona town in Cavite province.
The Carmona police said Friday that a motorcycle driven by Ruel Banaag hit the center island along the highway in Barangay Maduya at 11:15 p.m.
Both motorcycle riders managed to jump off from the vehicle, landed on the pavement unharmed, but consequently got under an oncoming truck driven by Samuel Dagondon, the report said.
Both victims suffered grave injuries and were rushed to the Carmona Hospital and Medical Center, but Banaag died while undergoing treatment.
The truck driver was placed in the custody of the town police, the report said. INQ
