Dashcam Captures Motorcyclist Sent Flying Through The Air After Crashing Into An Unsecured Load

Earlier this month, 20-year-old Brendan Jankowski was headed east on I-94 just outside Minneapolis, Minnesota when a rolled-up foam pad fell off a vehicle and onto the road in front of him. Jankowski, who had been riding for less than two weeks, tried to avoid crashing into the big pad, but hit it head-on at ~50mph. Linda Leverty’s dashboard camera happened to be running at the time of the crash and caught the entire accident on video. Jankowski suffered only minor injuries and investigators are still looking for the driver of the SUV.
