One driver was cited and the other transported to the hospital after an SUV-motorcycle wreck in south Salina Wednesday afternoon.
Peggy Dean, 84, of Salina, was southbound on Century Plaza Drive and stopped at the stop sign at W. Magnolia Road in a 2016 GMC Acadia. H. Irving, 74, of Salina, was westbound on W. Magnolia Road on a 2000 Honda motorcycle when Dean pulled out in front of the motorcycle, Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning. Although Irving was able to lay down the motorcycle, it still collided with the SUV.
The wreck occurred at approximately 1 p.m. Wednesday.
Irving, who was wearing a helmet, suffered injuries and was transported to Salina Regional Health Center, Forrester said. Dean and a 65-year-old male passenger in the SUV were not injured, he said.
The SUV sustained front-end damage but was removed by the driver. The motorcycle also sustained front-end damage and was removed by wrecker.
Forrester said Dean was cited for failure to yield the right-of-way when leaving a stop sign.
