According to the preliminary investigation, the motorcyclist was traveling on Woolston Drive when a 76-year-old Lower Makefield Township man driving a sedan attempted to turn onto Makefield Road. As the sedan turned, the motorcycle struck the passenger side, causing the motorcyclist to travel over the vehicle and land in the roadway. The sedan then rolled into another vehicle stopped at a stop sign.
