According to authorities, the crash occurred around 4:36 p.m. at the intersection of Channel Islands Boulevard and Manzanita Drive.

The motorcyclist struck the driver’s side while attempting to avoid the Jeep.
Bystanders and officers provided lifesaving measures before emergency crews transported the rider to Ventura County Medical Center, where he later succumbed to his injuries.
The Jeep driver was uninjured and cooperating with investigators. Police reported that speed was not a factor and that no impairment was observed.
What A Lawyer Can Do For You
Many victims put off calling a lawyer even if they sustain injuries after an accident. However, lawyers can help you in many ways. They can provide you with police reports, CCTV footage, and witness statements to strengthen your case. Your attorney will also negotiate with insurance companies to get you fair compensation. The best part is that they will do all of these things for you at no upfront cost. So if you’re injured in an accident, hire a personal injury attorney to recover medical bills, car repair costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
