Release from the Iowa County Sheriff’s Office

Date: 10/4/09, 12:11 p.m.

Location: County Rd. T 1,000 Ft. E. of County Rd H, Town of Arena.

A 1996 Harley Davidson driven by Julia M. Klauer age 44 of Madison, was westbound on County Road T when Klauer crossed the center line of County Rd T while negotiating a curve and struck an oncoming eastbound 2006 GMC pick up driven by Daniel A. Kruser age 47 of Barneveld head on.

Klauer was transported initially by Arena EMS but was pronounced dead by the responding Med Flight physician.

Speed on Klauer’s part is believed to be a factor in the crash. Klauer was wearing a helmet at the time of the crash and was accompanied by two other motorcyclists who were not involved in the crash.

The crash is still under investigation.

Anonymous @ 04:59, you're right in a generality, but where in this story is it said Julia was speeding? Speed may have been a factor, but that doesn't mean going faster than the limit.

Free speech is NOT a political agenda. I have as much freedom to speak here as the person who says "if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all."

Anonymous 5:51: This is a story about a car crash, not your political agenda. You have the right to your opinion, but this is not the place to try and push your agenda on people. The truth is the truth and that is whatever is in the news story. It says nothing regarding politics, so this is not the proper forum. Find a political board to blog on, not a fatality accident. Being an American also involves having compassion for your fellow man. Something you do not display at all since your focus is your agenda over the loss of life. Your entitled to whatever you want to say in the proper channels. So do us all a favor and take your political arguments to an appropriate story regarding anything your saying. I think your comments are about as Un-American as they can get. Rest in peace Julia.
