A 16-year-old motorcyclist died at the scene of an accident in Villars-le-Terroir, Waadtland, on Saturday after colliding with a tractor. The young man was from the region and was riding his motorcycle from Vuarrens to Echallens at around 9:10 pm when he lost control of his bike in a long right-hand curve. He veered to the left and collided with the wheel of a tractor travelling in the opposite direction. The motorcycle caught fire and the rider was thrown into a field on the right side of the road. Several people who were present at the scene provided assistance, but the motorcyclist still passed away. An investigation has been opened by the prosecutor's office.nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
