A young cyclist by the name of Angus Collins (22) was hit by a truck in Melbourne's west on the 2nd Feb, 2022.

A woman, Arzu Karakoc, was killed in a similar fashion along the same path on 2017. I was also travelling home along the path that day. The bike infrastructure in Melbourne's west is really terrible as it competes with heavy industry, and trucks in particular.

Oscar Montoya - March 4th, 2023 - San Pedro, CA, USA
Struck from behind and left by a hit and run driver, died of his injuries
I did not know him, but he was a neighbor, father and cyclist, riding on a road that is part of my regular bike route
small consolation - driver has been arrested
SoCaled is online now
