A police officer conducts traffic at the scene of a motorcycle accident on Missouri 163 on Sunday in Columbia. Two motorcycles southbound on Missouri 163 just east of Providence Road collided in a rear-end collision.

Helfrecht said the two drivers and a passenger were moderately injured, and all were wearing helmets.
