A Palm Beach Gardens woman was injured Saturday night following a motorcycle accident at U.S. 98 and County Road 721 in Highlands County.
Beverly Singer, 59, was traveling east on U.S. 98 (State Road 700) on a 2007 Honda motorcycle when, for reasons unknown, she lost control of the vehicle, according to the Florida Highway Patrol (FHP). It left the roadway and overturned.
Singer was ejected from the motorcycle, which came to a final rest facing westbound. The driver, who was wearing a helmet, was transported to Tampa General Hospital with serious injuries, the FHP said. Alcohol was not a factor in the accident. Hospital authorities listed her condition as critical as of noon today.
Total damages from the accident came to $2,000. FHP Trooper John Paikai investigated the crash.
