FREMONT, CA (May 11, 2020) — A 20-year-old motorcyclist died Thursday morning after colliding with a sedan on the 680 Freeway near Mission Boulevard.
 
According to the California Highway Patrol, the Fremont man rode a 2008 Kawasaki Ninja motorcycle behind a 2006 Chevrolet Impala. After that, the motorcycle crashed into the vehicle around 7:00 a.m.
 
Authorities determined that the 33-year-old Oakland driver of the Chevrolet was in the far-right southbound lane and had slowed down just north of Mission Boulevard due to stopped traffic.
