{SYD} Cyclist dies after being hit by car
Cyclist dies after being hit by car http://tinyurl.com/qe2dv May 28, 2006 - 10:37AM A cyclist has died and two others have been taken to a Sydney hospital in a serious condition after a car ploughed into a group of cyclists. The bike riders were cycling on the Princes Highway at Engadine south of Sydney this morning when a car veered off the road, an ambulance spokeswoman said. A man died at the scene while a 43-year-old woman with shoulder injuries and a 41-year-old man with shoulder and suspected head injuries were taken to St George Hospital. No further information was available, the spokeswoman said. The accident brings to seven the number of people killed in six separate accidents on NSW roads since Friday. Last night, a 16-year-old died and six teenagers were injured in a road accident involving a teenaged learner driver in country NSW. The 17-year-old driver lost control of a utility travelling on a dirt road on a private property at Manilla, 40km northwest of Tamworth, about 7pm (AEST) last night. The 16-year-old boy died at the scene after being thrown from the car when it rolled. The car's five other passengers and driver were taken to Manilla and Tamworth Hospitals for treatment. Also today, a man died in a two-vehicle crash which blocked northbound lanes of the F3, north of Sydney. The crash happened shortly after 6.30am (AEST) when a southbound sedan and a van travelling north collided near the Berowra exit. -- cfsmtb |

{SYD} Cyclist dies after being hit by car
Really sad for all involved.
It still amazes me how people cycle on our roads with the constant efforts of motorists. Last weekend I followed a car up the F3 and he was (at 0730 on a Sunday) weaving across all 3 lanes and lurching into the breakdown lane (erm, where cyclists ride!) and almost bashed into me side on t one stage - I had to go left to avoid him (into a bit of the breakdown lane). I called 000 as I followed and dobbed him in for attention. He kept going north after I went off at Berowra - I hope he got there safely or Plod pulled him up somewhere.

The three cyclists were riding in formation on the Princes Highway at Sutherland - one in front and two behind - when the accident occurred. "The two cyclists riding behind him actually collided, causing his bike to move onto the roadway, straight into the path of an oncoming car which was just metres behind," said Inspector Glenn Brown, of Sutherland police. http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/...754873014.html |
