Driver rear-ended by motorcycle discovers dazed biker in back seat

The driver of a minivan that was rear-ended by a motorcycle in Victorville, Calif., got all the way home before he realized the dazed biker had landed in his back seat, the Victorville Daily News reports.

Karen Hunt, a spokeswoman for the San Bernardino County Sheriff"s office, says officials call the incident "a non-injury collision with a twist."

Hunt says officers initially feared the biker had gotten caught under the vehicle because callers who reported the accident didn't know where the rider was.

Deputies say the driver had slowed to turn into his street when the crash occurred and proceeded for a half-block to his home.

Calling out to his wife that he'd been rear-ended and needed to go back, he turned around to find the shocked biker in the back seat, the newspaper says.

Hunt says the biker did not need any medical attention because the helmet sustained most of the impact.

All he asked for was an icepack for one of  his hands, the paper says.
