A bicyclist was killed in a collision at the intersection of La Honda Road and Skyline Boulevard on Friday afternoon in Woodside, according to a statement from the San Mateo County Sheriff’s office.
The bicyclist was hit by a person driving a pickup truck at what is often called “the four corners” intersection near Alice’s Restaurant. The driver stayed on scene after the collision, according to authorities.
The crash left the biker in critical condition and emergency personnel provided life-saving medical aid before transporting the person by air ambulance to Stanford Medical Center, where they died on Saturday, according to the sheriff’s office.
“This is a heartbreaking reminder that every life on our roads is precious. We must all share the road with vigilance, respect, and care – for cyclists, pedestrians and drivers alike,” wrote Sheriff Christina Corpus in a statement.
The San Mateo County Major Accident Investigation Team is currently investigating the collision and the driver of the pickup truck is cooperating, according to the sheriff’s office.
Anyone who would like to submit information about the crash can contact the San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office at 650-363-4911.
