Woman Arrested for Negligent Homicide in Motorcycle Accident
Why? Because reports indicate that Mr. Edens was not wearing a helmet. So, even though the accident would never have occurred but for the negligence of Ms. Whiteman, and even though Oklahoma law does not require helmets, the insurance company will argue that Mr. Edens's own negligence caused or contributed to his injuries.

Lucie Police Department Posted by Miranda Grossman / CBS 12 News PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- A motorcycle crash kills a man in Port St. Lucie.

Highway 12 west of Lolo. Montana Highway Patrol Trooper Andrew Novak says the motorcyclist was heading west on a curvy section of road around 5 p.m. Novak says the motorcyclist crossed a frosted bridge deck over Lolo Creek, the road curved the right, and that's when the man crossed the center line. An 86-year-old male driver was heading east, and we're told he tried to avoid the crash by swerving into the ditch, but the bike side-swiped the vehicle. The 41-year-old man was pronounced dead on-scene. The accident is still being investigated at this time. 
Their names are not yet being released by investigators. First responders lost about five minutes getting to the scene on Shaffers Church Road because the passerby who called in the incident just before 3 p.m. Saturday first provided a location near Seven Valleys Road. That's more than 6 miles from the actual location at Jefferson Road, according to the Jefferson Volunteer Fire Company. The passenger was flown to York Hospital, according to state police. No other vehicles were involved in the accident, and it is unclear what caused the Harley Davidson to veer off the roadway, state police said.

All four people traveling on the motorcycles died, as did Marjorie Smith, 68, of Johnstown, who was a passenger in the SUV, according to Franklin County coroner Jeffrey Conner.

The crash happened Saturday afternoon in the south-central Pennsylvania community of Washington Township, not far from Waynesboro. According to Conner, the northbound SUV crossed the center line on Fort Ritchie Access Road for unknown reasons and hit the motorcycle driven by Hoffer. The SUV then spun around and was broadsided by the Russells' bike, he said in a statement. Conner would not comment on the relationships among the victims. Washington Township police released no further information about the accident on Sunday.
