According to Lt Slusarz, the Honda was traveling west on Lincoln Ave when the Mazda backed south into traffic.
Slusarz said the Mazda driver was automatically at fault.
“A car backing out of a driveway has to yield the right of way to everyone already in the roadway, whether it is a pedestrian, a car or a motorcycle on the road,” Slusarz said. “You have to yield the right of way.”
