A driver is facing charges after an alleged hit and run incident involving a cyclist in Victoria. The cyclist, who was left critically injured, was struck by a blue Toyota Corolla on Strzelecki Highway in Driffield around 5:10 pm yesterday, according to police reports.
Upon arriving at the scene, emergency responders discovered a male cyclist with injuries and quickly transported him to the hospital. The cyclist's condition was described as life-threatening, and no other injuries were reported.
Shortly after the incident, authorities apprehended a 33-year-old man from Moe, whom they believe to be the driver of the vehicle involved in the hit and run. He has been charged with negligently causing serious injury and was released on bail. He is expected to appear in court at a later date, specifically at the Latrobe Valley Magistrates' Court.
This unfortunate event serves as a reminder for all drivers to practice caution and responsibility on the roads, especially when sharing them with vulnerable individuals such as cyclists. Let us all hope for the speedy recovery of the injured cyclist and for justice to be served in this case.
