Unidentified man hurt in motorbike mishap

A man is in critical condition after he was thrown off his motorcycle when a passenger bus sideswiped it in Quezon City at midnight yesterday.

Police Officer 2 Domingo Valerio said they have yet to identify the victim, who said he did not have a driver’s license.

According to Valerio, the victim was driving his Honda motorcycle (OS-5133) along the C-5 Road towards Quirino Highway  when a bus going in the same direction sideswiped his vehicle and he was thrown onto the sidewalk.

While his motorcycle was slightly damaged, the victim sustained serious head injures. As of yesterday morning, the victim was still unconscious at the nearby Bernardino Hospital.

A witness who brought the victim to the hospital was not able to take note of the bus’ plate number. The bus driver sped off after the incident.   – Reinir Padua
