A Milverton man remained in hospital Thursday with life-threatening injuries after his motorcycle collided with a horse-drawn buggy
The collision occurred around 7 p.m. on Perth Road 124 east of Milverton, between Perth Line 64 and Perth Line 67.
According to Perth County OPP, the collision occurred as the buggy was turning onto the road from a driveway.
The 55-year-old motorcyclist was taken to a nearby hospital before being airlifted to a facility in London.
None of the people in the buggy were hurt. The horse was injured, although details of that injury were not available.
The crash remains under investigation.
 
Smoked by a horse? The wrecks this year are getting stranger and stranger. Ride safe folks. GWS Rider.
 
To be fair, there are tons of horse and buggies in this area. It's really a numbers game. After church on a sunday I've seen full out horse and buggy traffic jams. Although a-typical, its hilarious when one tries to pass another. The majority have appropriate safety gear/lighting, but the closing speed is significant, particularly on a blind crest. Oddly trying to avoid horse droppings is legitimate safety concern here.

Get well soon.
