Motorcycle Accident

Motorcyclist Jonathan Gorman, 52, of Shelton was driving a 2007 BMW westward on Route 34 about 9:30 am June 16, when he rounded a curve and then spotted a westbound 2003 Subaru Forester driven by Edward Pankowski, 50, of 18 Oak Ridge Road, which was stopped and was waiting to turn left onto Jordan Hill Road, police said.

Gorman could not stop in time, so he intentionally dropped the motorcycle and slid into the rear end of the Subaru, coming to rest on the westbound road shoulder, police said.

Ambulance volunteers transported Gorman to Danbury Hospital to be checked for unknown injuries, police said. Sandy Hook firefighters went to the accident.

Police issued Gorman a written warning for failure to drive a reasonable distance apart.
