Despite the motorcycle being attached to the vehicle, Valentin continued driving until he crashed into a fence. Afterward, he fled on foot into a drainage wash. However, witnesses attempted to stop him before losing sight of the suspect.
 
“I was like oh this guy did try to kill me!” Arunritthirot revealed. “I feel like it was intentional, like he hunted me down.”
 
Arunritthirot did not sustain serious injuries in the crash. However, he suffered pain in his arms and legs.
 
CHP believes that the motorcyclist traveled at around 65 mph when the minivan going 70 mph struck him.
 
At this time, the police ruled out alcohol or drugs as factors in the crash. Thus, the CHP continues to investigate the incident. Moreover, they urge any witnesses to contact the Accident Investigation Unit at 951-637-8000 with any information.
 
Weaving in and out of lanes is dangerous. Always stay at your lane and be aware of the presence of other motorists around you. Pay attention and consider small vehicles like motorcycles because these are more prone to road accidents than bigger vehicles.
