Man Dies After Crash Between Motorcycle, Transport Truck

One man is dead and another man has a court date following a weekend crash in Lower Woodstock.

Police say a transport truck and a motorcycle collided on Beardsley Road around 3:30 p.m. Saturday.

“The collision is believed to have occurred when the motorcycle travelling northbound on Beardsley Road collided with the transport truck that was travelling southbound and turning left onto the ramp to Highway 2,” said the RCMP in a release.

A 62-year-old man from Beardsley, who was driving the motorcycle, died at the scene.

The truck driver, a 49-year-old Ontario man, has been issued an appearance notice under the Motor Vehicle Act for driving without due care and attention and failing to yield to oncoming traffic when turning left.

He is scheduled to appear in Woodstock Provincial Court on Sept. 8.
