An investigation of the June 12 crash in Dorset concluded a vehicle pulled in front of Williams, who was riding a motorcycle and was unable to avoid a collision, Vermont State Police said.

Koss was turning left into a parking lot in an Honda SUV when he collided with Williams’ oncoming motorcycle, police said. Williams, 71, of Manchester Center, was pronounced dead at Albany Medical Center in New York.

Note from me:

One thing they teach us in the MSF course is how easy it is for a driver to misjudge the closing distance of a motorcycle and assume there’s time to turn. If you see a bike coming, take an extra second and be sure - we’re smaller and look farther away at first glance than we often are.
