RICHMOND, Mass. — State police are investigating a fatal motorcycle accident that occurred on Swamp Road on Wednesday afternoon.
The one vehicle crash killed Todd Stanton of Pittsfield, according state troopers from the Lee barracks. The victim's name was not released until early Thursday morning, pending family notification.
The 44-year-old Pittsfield resident was driving his 1980 Harley-Davidson north on Swamp Road at approximately 2:47 p.m. when he left the roadway and collided with a tree, according to a preliminary investigation by Trooper James R. Somerville.
The operator suffered severe injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.
The crash remains under investigation with the assistance of the state police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section and Crime Scene Services Section. Lenox and West Stockbridge police and Richmond Fire and Ambulance assisted troopers at the scene.
The on-scene investigation took just over two hours with only intermittent stops in traffic. No further information was available late Wednesday night.
Updated Thursday morning, June 18, to add victim's name.
Yeah because the type of helmet is going to make a huge difference if you go head-on with a tree. A broken neck is a broken neck, I don't care what's on your head.

I think the type of helmet a rider is wearing should be part of the information provided. Similar to the practice of stating whether victims of car crashes where wearing their seat belts. Some of these "brain buckets" as they are called, should be outlawed, they do nothing more than keep one's hair from blowing in the wind.
