Maryland SHA to assess Fallston intersection where teen died in dirt bike crash


The Maryland State Highway Administration will be assessing the Fallston intersection where 16-year-old Tyler Benton was killed in a dirt bike crash earlier this month, Harford County Councilmember Alison Imhoff announced Thursday.

On May 5 around 2:30 p.m., troopers with the Maryland State Police Bel Air Barrack were called to the intersection of Fallston Road (MD-152) and Pleasantville Road for a crash involving a car and electric dirt bike.

The preliminary investigation found a Honda CR-V was traveling southbound on MD-152 and tried to make a left turn onto Pleasantville Rd. and that’s when an electric dirt bike traveling northbound on MD-152 hit the Honda on the passenger side, officials said.

Maryland State Police Aviation Command flew the teen, who attended Fallston High School, to a local trauma center where he was pronounced dead.

The Maryland State Police Crash Team is leading the investigation.

Once completed, the investigation will be presented to the Office of the State’s Attorney in Harford County to determine if charges will be filed.

SHA’s review should be done in the next 90 days, Councilmember Imhoff said.
