HALFMOON — A 19-year-old was killed Sunday after crashing his motorcycle into three different cars at Route 9 and Watkins Plaza, according to the Saratoga County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies said Sean C. Obernesser of Clifton Park was driving a 2006 Suzuki motorcycle around 11 a.m. when he struck a 1999 Mercury Sable being operated by Henry Kurland of Clifton Park. Kurland was attempting to make a left turn. Obernesser continued northbound striking a 2005 Hyundia operated by Nancy Marrinter of Cohoes. The motorcyclist continued to drive and struck a stationary 2009 Hyundai, driven by Andrew Mayo of Waterford.
Obernesser was taken to Albany Medical Center Hospital where he was pronounced dead. The accident is still under investigation, and no tickets have been issued.
all signs point to it being a GSXR, except the fact that it stayed up to hit 3 cars. I’m betting it was some kind of cruzier, unless it literally just happened to ping pong from car to car by sheer moment, witch come to think of it is probably what happend.
seems weird to me that he stayed on the bike and then the last impact killed him.
My son went to school with him…and apparently another MC accident involving a 23 y/o. from Clifton Park today.
This one sounds more accurate…It makes more sense that the bike alone hit 3 cars, not the rider.

HALFMOON — A motorcyclist died Sunday after crashing into three vehicles on Route 9 at the intersection with Watkins Plaza.
According to the Saratoga County Sheriff’s Office, 19-year-old Sean C. Obernesser of Clifton Park was riding his 2006 Suzuki motorcycle north on Route 9 at about 11 a.m. when he hit a left-turning 1999 Mercuty Sable driven by Henry Kurland.
Obernesser’s bike continued on to hit a 2005 Hyundai driven by Nancy Marrinter, and then hit a stopped 2009 Hyundai operated by Andrew Mayo.
Clifton Park-Halfmoon Ambulance brought Obernesser to Albany Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.
No tickets have been issued but the accident is under investigation according to the sheriff’s office.
A 100% avoidable incident with fatal results. If you pass a car and your rear wheel actually clip the front of the car you are passing, you are doing something horribly wrong.
