2 hurt in motorcycle wreck

By Randy Mitchell

Staff Writer

ADA — Two people were injured when the motorcycle they were riding collided with a car Thursday evening.

Ada police said the crash occurred when a motorcycle driven by Preston Dale Williams, 28, Savanna, crashed into a Toyota Camry driven by Carletta K. Barnes, 52, Ada.

Officer Richard Hubble said Barnes was driving west on Main when she attempted to make a left turn in front of Williams.

“Carletta stated she did not see the motorcycle until right before it crashed into the front of her car,” Hubble said. “Carletta stated the motorcycle was traveling east in the outside lane.”

An eyewitness to the scene — Floyd Wafer — said Williams attempted to stop.

“The motorcycle was coming, he pressed his brakes real hard, and as soon as he pressed his brakes, the car turned in front of him, so he saw them coming,” Wafer said. “He tried to avoid it but it was unavoidable, they collided and they flipped over the hood.”

Hubble said Williams was not wearing a helmet but his passenger, Amanda Jullea Lay, 22, McAlester, was. They were taken by Valley View EMS to Carl Albert Hospital and treated for various injuries.

According to a report, the cause of the wreck was listed as failure to yield right of way to oncoming traffic by Barnes.
