UPDATED @ 9:40 AM

The driver popped back out on US 231 and the same trooper got behind him again. This time the driver made the mistake of traveling North on US 231 and smacked the rear of a pickup going down the road. The people in the pickup were not injured but were wandering why the driver of the motorcycle was in the back of the truck.

Yep when the driver hit the rear of the truck the driver flew into the bed of the truck and that's where he stayed until the firemedics loaded him into the ambulance.
