Motorcyclist dies in solo wreck Friday
A motorcyclist traveling with no helmet and no headlights down a dark highway was killed late Friday when he ran off the road and was ejected from his bike, said a State Police news release.

Herman R. Sevario, 24, of Walker, was southbound on La. 449 on a Honda CRF 450R motorcycle, near La. 63 in Livingston Parish, at 11:32 p.m. when the wreck occurred, State Police spokesman Trooper Johnnie Brown said.

The motorcycle left the road to the right, throwing Sevario to the ground.

Sevario was pronounced dead at the scene by the Livingston Parish Coroner’s Office, Brown said.

Alcohol use is not suspected as a factor in the crash.

So no helmet … no headlights … dark road … sounds like a plan. I guess the last line about alcohol not being involved is a surprise, but otherwise, I think Herman might should have known a little better.
