UPDATE – Investigators were notified that Mr. Timothy Travis of Accokeek, Maryland was pronounced deceased on September 6, 2024, at the University of Maryland R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore, Maryland.
WALDORF, Md. – On Saturday, August 31, 2024, at approximately 2153 hours, Troopers from Maryland State Police La Plata Barrack responded to United States Route 301 north of Maryland Route 5 for a report of a serious motor vehicle collision.
Due to the circumstances, a Collision Reconstruction Specialist (CRS) was requested and Tpr. H. Gardner, of the MSP La Plata Barrack responded to assume the investigation.
A preliminary investigation conducted by Troopers from the MSP La Plata Barrack and the Collision Reconstruction Specialist indicates an unregistered 2006 Suzuki GSXR-600 operated by Isaiah Noble (24 yoa) of Hagerstown, MD was traveling on northbound United States Route 301 north of Maryland Route 5 at a high rate of speed. At the same time, a Toyota RAV4 operated by Lucretia Jones (48) of Crofton, MD and occupied by Timothy Travis (57 yoa) of Accokeek, MD were attempting to make a turn from the southbound lanes to the northbound lanes from a crossover.
The Suzuki collided into the passenger side of the Toyota. Mr. Noble sustained injuries not compatible with life and was pronounced deceased on the scene. Ms. Jones and Mr. Travis sustained serious injuries and were flown by Maryland State Police Helicopters Trooper 2 and Trooper 7 to the University of Maryland R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore, Maryland for treatment. Speed appears to be the factor in the collision.
Anyone who may have witnessed this crash is asked to contact the Duty Officer or Tpr. Gardner at the MSP La Plata Barrack (301) 392-1200. The investigation is continuing. (24-MSP- 028524)
Sounds like the Rav4 pulled out in front of the motorcycle
The bike was doing over 100, another one’s bites the dust
Just like the crash and innocent death in Hollywood earlier this year, the motorcycle was traveling at a HIGH speed.
Not that drivers don’t pull out in front of cars. Happened to me in Leonardtown this afternoon AND she considered me the bad driver.
The REAL victims were the folks in the RAV4…
Got what he was looking for flying like a bat
Oh well they should slow down and drive like humans
Baynet always has someone commenting that it’s never the motorcyclist fault. .
I saw this accident (pre and post), it was two motorcycles speeding in between cars as other drivers, including myself were sitting at a dead red light. The motorcyclists, on their respective motorbikes, were sitting at the front of the light revving their pedals and sped off before the light turned green. Next, heard “boom”, saw motorcycle scattered across the road in smoke and the mangled SUV. No sight of the second motorcycle, I guess they sped off….sad.
I called 911 immediately, me and other callers per the 911 operator. Prayers up to the families. Senseless tragedy.
Thank you Monique for calling 911 and posting the details of this tragic accident. It is our responsibility to operate motor vehicles responsibly.
I lost a friend and neighbor from this senseless incident. Exactly why they call them donor bikes because of their reckless driving and erregraud for the law. RIP Brice. Semper Fi forever. I will miss you dearly. I hope Ms. Jones recovery is going well..🙏🏾🙏✌️❤️
