A Hamilton rider died on the 401 at the scene last night after moving over to an exit ramp and changed his mind at last minute, swerved to go back on the highway and hit the center crash bariers.
RIP Rider

That's the second rider to die there in the past 5 years.
I can only assume that he thought it was the exit for the 403 and swerved back onto the 401 at the last second.
RIP rider.
RIP. Just read it in the star.
Rest in peace rider

The OPP is investigating after a 68-year-old Hamilton man was killed when he reportedly lost control of his motorcycle on the 401.
Police say at about 1am Saturday, the driver of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle was exiting the westbound lanes of Hwy 401 at Carlingview Dr. when he crossed over the paved shoulder to bet back onto the highway. It appears at that point, he lost control and struck the crash barrier.
The man was pronounced dead at the scene and has not yet been identified.
If you witnessed the collision, call the OPP at (416) 985-4981.
