A 33-year-old man died Wednesday morning after his motorcycle struck the front of a car on State Road 24 in Alachua County, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Troopers said around 6:50 a.m., a black sedan was traveling eastbound on SR-24, near SW 48th Drive, and was preparing to make a left turn into a business driveway.
At the same time, a black motorcycle was traveling westbound on SR-24 “at a high rate of speed,” according to FHP’s incident report.
As the sedan began to make its left turn, the motorcyclist struck the front of the car.
The motorcyclist, from Gainesville, died at the scene, the report says.
The driver of the sedan was transported to a hospital with minor injuries.
