A 35-year-old Clearwater man died on his motorcycle early Monday in a wreck on Ulmerton Road in Largo, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Troopers said the man, identified as Robert Gayle Lowe IV, was traveling west at a high rate of speed near Coral Way about 3:45 a.m. He tried to change lanes around a slower-moving truck and struck the front end of an Audi A4, according to the FHP.
The man was thrown from his bike after the initial collision and his body hit the front of the truck he had tried to pass, troopers said. No other drivers were injured, and no charges were filed Monday morning.
No further information was immediately available.
