Motorcycle Collision in Cisco Grove Causes Fatal Trauma
On Sunday, November 22, 2020, one person tragically passed away following a motorcycle collision in Cisco Grove. At the time of reporting, Placer County Sheriff’s Office officials were still withholding the identity of the decedent. According to information from California Highway Patrol (CHP), the crash involved both a passenger vehicle and a motorcycle and did not cause any other injuries. The cause of this incident remains under investigation.
Crash Information
The collision happened at around 5:54 p.m. on the westbound side of Highway Interstate 80. While reports indicate that the motorcycle and vehicle crashed into each other, CHP has not yet released details about how the accident happened.
Directly following the accident, CHP was notified by phone and immediately sent emergency officials to the location of the crash. When they reached the site of the crash, responders discovered that the motorcyclist had been severely injured. Sadly, the motorcyclist passed away at the scene.
Investigation
While CHP continues to investigate what could have possibly caused this crash, investigating officers haven’t confirmed any suspected factors. Frequently, collisions like this happen because of more than one reason, and many common crash factors aren’t things that motorcyclists or drivers have any ability to control. These non-motorist accident causes can include things like hazardous roads and malfunctioning vehicle products.
On top of being complex, fatal collisions can also be difficult to investigate. If police cannot interview the decedent about what took place, it’s possible that they will never uncover critical evidence during investigations. Sadly, this oversight can leave families unable to obtain the compensation that they deserve from insurers and/or at-fault parties.
To be sure that you and your family receive fair compensation following a fatal crash, it’s important to have an attorney conduct a private accident investigation. An expert lawyer will be able to use their skills and resources to investigate the accident while prioritizing your family’s financial and personal recovery.

However, families also often suffer serious financial damages as the result of fatal auto accidents. In many cases, the decedent was an income earner in their household or provided their families with valuable, important services like home maintenance or childcare. These losses can be very serious, leaving families unable to focus on coping with grief.
