Motorcyclist Dies in I-40 Crash Near West Memphis, Arkansas
A New Jersey motorcyclist died after striking a semi-truck trailer on I-40 near West Memphis. Loren Kozenskie, a 36-year-old motorcyclist from Absecon, New Jersey, died after he collided with the trailer of a semi-truck on Interstate 40 near West Memphis, Arkansas. He was rushed across the Mississippi River to Regional One Health in Memphis, Tennessee, where he was pronounced dead. According to a preliminary crash summary, traffic was slowing due to congestion when Kozenski's motorcycle failed to stop and hit the rear of the Freightliner's trailer. The crash occurred on a busy freight corridor, with I-40 carrying between 23,500 and 26,500 commercial heavy trucks daily. Arkansas law does not require helmets for adult riders and helmets are mandatory only for motorcycle operators and passengers under 21, a standard since the state legislature repealed its universal helmet mandate in 1997.
