[TOMT] [SONG] [90S] SONG with lyric about an accident

r/

I have sense memories of listening to this song always on radio as a kid in the 90s (mayyybe real early 2000s) that had some lyric about someone fatally crashing their motorcycle or car into a bridge or something else. I think at night and I believe it was a country song. I’ve long tried to search for it because it is always a memory unlocked when I pass an accident on the thruway. Any ideas???

    I was living in NY at the time the song was popular. I think it also implied the accident in the song was at night because there was something about a light. I believe it was a male vocalist

    Doubtful this is it bc it’s from the wrong era, but it was the first one I thought of – Teen Angel.
