High-horsepower motorcycle rolls over after sliding 20 meters

The incident occurred at about 2 o'clock in the morning yesterday. A 22-year-old young man surnamed Chen drove a high-powered motorcycle carrying his girlfriend Zhang. The vehicle was traveling along Argyle Street towards Cherry Street. When it reached Nathan Road, it was hit by a vehicle traveling northbound on Nathan Road. The driver was violently shaken, and Chen and the female passenger were thrown onto the sidewalk about 5 meters away from the traffic lane. Both of them were seriously injured and fell into coma. Both vehicles were seriously damaged. The taxi was traveling northbound on Nathan Road, while the motorcycle slid about 20 meters and overturned on the side of the road.

The ambulance crew arrived at the scene after receiving the report. They first took off the helmets of the man and woman on the motorcycle and gave them first aid on the spot. They were then sent to the hospital by ambulance respectively. After the rescue, the two died one after another. The three injured men were all conscious when they were sent to the hospital.

After the car accident, the scene was covered with debris and oil stains. The roadside railings were damaged and deformed. Some of the traffic light shades on the lamp posts were hanging in the air. It was not ruled out that they were knocked down by the flying cavalry or destroyed by splashing debris. The police blocked the traffic lane involved to collect evidence. And check nearby CCTV and car cam footage. It is reported that the motorcycle was traveling along the third left lane of Argyle Street at the time.

It was suspected that the motorcycle "Ran The Redlight" and exited Nathan Road. It first crossed three southbound lanes and was violently hit by a taxi traveling along the second left lane when it reached the northbound lane. The cause of the accident is still under investigation and the case is being followed up by the Special Investigation Team of the Traffic Department, Kowloon West Region. Police appeal to anyone who witnessed the accident or has information to provide to contact investigators.

It is reported that the deceased woman lived in a public housing estate in Ngau Tau Kok. Her neighbors said that the family moved into the unit more than a year ago and greeted her parents on weekdays, but she was rarely seen in the past. Someone in the unit was heard talking about an accident early yesterday morning, and heard crying. The deceased male lived in Shau Kei Wan. Neighbors said they had seen him wearing a helmet when entering and exiting his unit, and he would nod to say hello every day.
