Motorcycle Chase and Crash in Long Beach, California

📍 Long Beach, California — A motorcyclist trying to flee from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) led a high-speed chase exceeding 140 mph on Sunday night, ending in a violent motorcycle accident caught on AIR7 cameras.

Reports indicate the pursuit began near Downey when the rider—wanted for speeding—tried to evade officers on the 605 Freeway and later the 405 Freeway. 

The motorcyclist lost control after clipping another vehicle and was ejected in what appeared to be a fatal crash. Amazingly, the rider survived and, as seen on footage, even attempted to get back on his motorcycle before being apprehended by the CHP.

After a Motorcycle Crash: What Every Rider Should Know

While this case had an unusual outcome—with the motorcyclist walking away after a 140+ mph crash—most motorcycle accidents have serious consequences, even if they don’t seem critical at first.

Our advice for every rider:

  1. Seek immediate medical attention, even if you feel fine. Many internal or brain injuries show no immediate symptoms.
  2. Don’t downplay the impact of the crash. Shock and adrenaline can mask pain or severe injuries.
  3. Consult a specialized attorney to understand your rights, especially if third-party negligence or legal risks are involved.
  4. Document everything: Photos, witness information, and a police report are key to protecting your rights.
