Five motorcyclists have tragically died in two separate crashes in Derbyshire within an hour. The first incident occurred at approximately 9:45 AM on the A53, involving three Ducati motorcycles, a van, and a car, resulting in the deaths of three men in their 50s. The second crash happened at around 10:20 AM on the A6, where two more motorcyclists were killed in a collision with a car. The driver of the van and two passengers from the car involved in the first crash were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries. Derbyshire police are appealing for witnesses and dashcam footage related to both incidents, which have led to road closures as investigations continue. The families of the deceased have been notified, and police express their condolences during this difficult time.
