Police probe fatal motorcycle crash in S. Kingstown

SOUTH KINGSTOWN -- The police are still investigating a motorcycle accident on Route 1 yesterday that claimed the life of a South Kingstown man.

David R. Buiniskas, 51, of 48 Erin Dr., was driving a 2000 Harley Davidson north on Route 1 around 5:49 p.m. in the low-speed lane when he crashed near the Jerry Brown Farm Road exit, according to the police.

It appears Buiniskas lost control after hitting the chatter strip, said Capt. Jeffrey Allen.

Officers responding to the scene found Buiniskas and his vehicle in the roadway. He was taken to South County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
