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.

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
