A fatal motorcycle accident occurred on Sunday afternoon near Chemin Thomas-Lavoie in Notre-Dame-de-Montauban, Mauricie. According to the Sûreté du Québec (SQ), the accident took place around 1:45 PM on Route Rousseau (Route 367) in a construction zone.
The accident involved a group of three motorcycles, with one motorcyclist being ejected from their vehicle during the collision. The victim was transported to the hospital in critical condition but unfortunately did not survive. The identity of the victim has not been released at this time.
Another motorcycle, with two people on board, also lost control as a result of the accident. The other motorcycle sustained minor injuries. The Sûreté du Québec (SQ) confirmed that they are investigating the incident, with Eve Brochu-Joubert, the spokesperson for the SQ, providing updates as the investigation progresses.
An investigator was expected to arrive at the scene in the afternoon to analyze the circumstances surrounding the event. The accident took place on a gravel portion of the road due to repairs, which may have contributed to the loss of control for the motorcyclist.
