Lake Elsinore – CA
Here we go again.
A 50-year-old man from Newport Beach was killed when a Toyota Corolla slammed head-on into his motorcycle and he was thrown, a CHP officer said today.
Robert Grice Jr. was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash, reported about 8:45 a.m. Sunday on the Ortega Highway, about a mile east of the Orange County Line.
Grice was riding his Ducati Demosedici east on the Ortega when a Corolla traveling west swerved to the left and struck Grice’s motorcycle, according to California Highway Patrol Officer Ron Thatcher.
This is flat out negligent homicide. I am tired of hearing about cagers killing bikers and motorcyclist.
As many of you have read, another biker and motorcyclist Martin Allen Lacy was killed in a similar fashion by a girl who crossed into his lane.
I say it is time to start enforcing the laws that we have on the books regarding this wanton disregard for human life. These people need to be taught a lesson. Kill a biker, go to jail.

Welcome, my name is 
My wife and I can upon the Ortega accident shortly after it happened. We were very very sorry the man was killed.In this case we were advised it was the driver’s fault. We wish that drivers and bikers would quit hot rodding on the narrow highway and not be in such a hurry. I know there are a lot of motorists who pay attention to the law however the few that don’t end up seriously injured ot killed.
Thanks for your comments Joel. I know this must have been traumatic for you and your wife. I deal with cases like this on a daily basis.
As I told you in my email, in this particular accident, the Toyota came upon a slow moving vehicle and went directly into the decedentÂ’s lane killing him. The accident was in no way the motorcycleÂ’s fault.
However, I will tell everyone to heed your advice with respect to being careful on the Ortega Highway. That stretch of road is a real meat grinder.
