The rider, a 34-year-old Wurtulla man, died at the scene.

Witnesses or anyone with further information or dashcam vision are urged to contact police.

The Queensland Police Service is committed to reducing number of lives lost on our roads.

Data shows that serious crashes can be significantly reduced when drivers recognise and avoid the ‘Fatal Five’ behaviours: speeding, drink and drug driving, not wearing seatbelts, fatigue and distraction.
