The main road between Apse Heath and Arreton has been closed in both directions by Police tonight (Thursday) as a result of a motorcycle crash, which has left the rider with leg injuries.
The incident has occurred near to the entrance to the new Branstone development and has involved just 1 vehicle – the motorcycle.
The crash occurred at around 21:00 and has seen the motorcycle come to rest in a hedge.
Paramedics from the Isle of Wight Ambulance Service are tending to the injured male.
UPDATE @ 22:38 – The motorcyclist has been conveyed to St Mary’s Hospital for treatment.
The road has now reopened following recovery of the motorcycle.
I hope the Motorcyclist is well, but for their own sakes I
wish they would slow down.
Roads are dangerous with 4 wheels, yet alone 2 wheels.
Hope the rider is ok .
Some old fart that goes 20mph on a 40 this is what happens old fools
Have you got hold of mummy or daddy’s phone to type this?
Stuart we found your pecker
The sad thing is, you’re not even funny. If you think your infantile comments wind me up, then you’re completely wasting your time, honestly. I just laugh at you, and certainly not with you. Try growing up, just a bit, eh?
you’re an IDIOT.
Are you special? Have your carers given up on you??…
Nice sunny evening all I can hear is motorbikes screaming around everywhere
Well, it makes a a change from the petrol-powered leaf-blowers and all those other garden gadgets that apparently only work if you make them go “vroom-vroom” continuously.
All I can hear is stupid oversized cars
It’s amazing that on old person having a medical episode driving a car hasn’t been blamed. They usually are.
I bet some old fart had a major hard on
Hope he has a speedy recovery.
