The motorcyclist killed in Tuesday’s 6:15 p.m. collision with a car on Old Hickory Boulevard is identified as Randal Scott Stout, 32, of Nashville.
The investigation shows that Stout was riding his 2015 Suzuki motorcycle north on Old Hickory Boulevard when he was struck by the driver of a 2018 Toyota Corolla, Kathleen Howe, 33, of Nashville. She was turning left onto the I-40 East entrance ramp from the southbound lanes of Old Hickory Boulevard when the collision occurred. Howe said she did not see the motorcycle prior to making the turn. Stout died at the scene.
The preliminary contributing factor to this crash is the Toyota’s failure to yield to the motorcycle, however, further investigation is needed to determine whether speed on the part of the motorcyclist may have been a factor.
There was no evidence at the scene of alcohol or drug involvement in this crash.
