## Resource

A motorcycle rider with a sidecar, Jason Doherty, died after a sudden crash off the Marquam Bridge on I-5 in Portland, sparking questions about safety gear and road conditions. Emergency crews arrived too late, and investigators are still piecing together what caused the loss of control — made more jarring by the fact he wore a non-approved novelty helmet. The crash shut down I-5 South for hours and adds to a grim year for Portland traffic fatalities, with 20 deaths so far — eight of them motorcyclists or scooter riders.
