Tragic Bronx Bicycle Accident Claims Life of 66-Year-Old Cyclist: A Lawyer’s Perspective on Seeking Justice for Victims
A 66-year-old bicyclist was fatally struck by a pickup truck in the Bronx at the intersection of Westchester and Commonwealth Avenues on Saturday. Emergency Medical Services rushed the cyclist to Jacobi Medical Center, where he was tragically pronounced dead.
The driver of the pickup, a 24-year-old man, remained at the scene following the accident. While police have indicated that no criminality is suspected, it has been reported that the pickup truck lacked front plates, which raises potential legal concerns about vehicle compliance.
