A 24-year-old woman who witnesses say was racing another car at around 120 mph was seriously injured when her motorcycle rear-ended a car and sent debris into a Rolls-Royce on Interstate 94 near Lake Forest, authorities said. The Libertyville Fire Department and Illinois State Police responded around 6:10 p.m. on November 1 to eastbound Interstate 94 near milepost 18.25, just south of the Lake Forest Oasis, for a report of a crash with injuries involving a motorcycle. A preliminary investigation indicates the motorcycle was traveling in the second lane from the left and tried to move right into the third lane to pass a Toyota sedan in front of it but struck the rear of the Toyota, an Illinois State Police (ISP) spokesperson said. Debris from the motorcycle then struck a Rolls-Royce that was traveling in the third lane, ISP said. The Toyota was driven by an adult woman and the Rolls-Royce was driven by an adult man, ISP said.
