MOSS LANDING, CA (January 12, 2020) – A motorcyclist was killed in a traffic collision Sunday afternoon in the unincorporated Monterey County community of Moss Landing.
 
The collision happened around 1:30 p.m. near the intersection of Highway 1 and Moss Landing Road.
 
A Harley-Davidson motorcycle pulled off to the side of the southbound Highway 1 and attempted to make a U-turn to travel northbound, CHP officials said.
 
Once the motorcycle accelerated, a large cargo truck crashed into it ejecting the rider from the bike.
