AMA URGES SOUTH DAKOTA OFFICIALS TO SEEK JUSTICE IN JANKLOW CASE

PICKERINGTON, OHIO — The American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) is calling on motorcyclists nationwide to contact South Dakota Gov. Mike Rounds and South Dakota Attorney General Larry Long, and to urge them to seek justice in the case of U.S. Rep. Bill Janklow (R-S.D.), who was involved in a collision that took the life of a motorcyclist last Saturday.

On August 16, motorcyclist Randolph Scott of Hardwick, Minn., was killed in a collision with a car driven by Janklow. The fatal accident took place at the intersection of two county roads in eastern South Dakota where, according to reports, Janklow ran a stop sign while traveling 70mph to 75mph, resulting in the crash that took Scott’s life.

Using AMA Rapid Response, motorcyclists and other concerned citizens can send an e-mail message directly to South Dakota officials. AMA Rapid Response, which allows users to contact lawmakers, government officials and the media with the click of a button, is available on the Association’s website, AMADirectlink.com.
