Drivers of huge vehicles tend to be unmindful of the presence of small cars much less of bicycles on the roads. Hence, incidents of bicycles being hit by larger vehicles are very common.
In Valley Center, a bicyclist died after it was struck by a pickup truck. The driver of the truck already saw the bicycle, looked over to pass but ended hitting it.
Angel Guadalupe Galvez who was riding south on Cole Grade Road near Bernabeo Court died at the hospital due to his injuries. His helmet was knocked off due to the impact of the collision.
California Highway Patrol Eric Newbury said the truck’s driver could face misdemeanor manslaughter charges.
Ironically, the deceased’s brother died of dirt bike accident in 2005 also in Valley Center.
For Angel’s loved ones, they are entitled to file a personal injury case against the driver. They must be compensated for Angel’s death caused by the negligent act of the driver.
