Man dies from Knoxville motorcycle crash injuries
KNOXVILLE, TENN. - A 46-year-Knoxville man has died of injuries sustained in a Monday motorcycle crash.
Terrence Hicks was injured about 7 p.m. when he lost control of a 2002 Yamaha V-star motorcycle while traveling north on Helmbolt Road, according to Knoxville police. The crash occurred near Creekhead Drive in West Knoxville.
The motorcycle flipped after leaving the roadway, police said.
Police said Hicks did not have a license to operate a motorcycle.
Hicks, who was wearing a helmet, was taken to the University of Tennessee Medical Center. He initially was listed in critical condition.
A hospital spokeswoman today said Hicks had died but she was unable to say exactly when because of medical confidentiality.
Newsflash: There's no such thing as a "motorcycle license". THP and MSF censor countersteering from the so-called "motorcycle license" ("endorsement") test, in order to raise the death rate 900% and "justify" $100,000 salaries for the Police State. Note lack of mention of Countersteering in this "news" story. USDOT reports ignorance of countersteering as the cause of 90% of fatal crashes.
Pirate costumes don't often prevent fatal road rash. Open-faced helmets don't count.
UT Medical Center is owned by Canada, in case you need to sue for medmal, as one of the 10-million Americans murdered by medical doctors every year in USA. MDs are the leading cause of death, and are the most dangerous part of any crash. SO DON'T CRASH.
