Troopers say a motorcycle driven by 59-year-old Alvin Haug of Warden was eastbound just before White Trail when he tried to pass a pickup truck.

Officers say they are not able to chase the cyclist because of state law, even though fleeing from police is still a felony.

The impact veered one motorcycle into a ditch on the right shoulder.

Powerband Films helped put together a video of Alex doing the stunt and sent it to the Guinness Book of World Records.

There is currently no estimate for when the road will reopen.

Troopers say a car driven by 49-year-old Phlym Anthony Gayan was westbound in the eastbound lane attempting to pass other cars when the car hit an oncoming motorcycle.

They were pronounced dead at the scene.

Troopers say Dennis Armour of Ephrata died at a hospital after rear ending an SUV that had slowed down to turn into the Blue Lake rest area just before 9am.

They say 43-year-old Alan Moody was headed southbound just before 9pm when he failed to handle a curve at a high rate of speed and drove off the roadway.

Authorities seized two firearms, 122 grams of meth, 40 fentanyl pills, $412 in cash, and a motorcycle during this investigation.
