A motorcyclist was seriously injured in an accident in Whispering Pines, North Carolina on Thursday morning.

There is very little information available about this accident.  Reports indicate that an SUV turned into the path of the biker around 6:00 am.  The accident happened at the intersection of Airport Road and Queens Cove Way.  The biker was airlifted to UNC Hospital in Chapel Hill with very serious injuries.

This type of motorcycle accident is among the most frequent that we say on the roads of North Carolina.  For whatever reason, drivers continue to fail to see motorcyclists approaching in the other direction.  Hopefully the biker will recover from his injuries in this serious case.
