A bicyclist died Saturday after a collision with a vehicle in Woodside Friday afternoon, authorities said.
The collision between a pickup truck and bicyclist occurred at the intersection of Highway 35 and Highway 84, which is known as “Four Corners,” according to a press release from the San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office.
“We extend our deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of the cyclist who tragically lost their life in this collision,” Sheriff Christina Corpus said in the press release. “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.”
The Sheriff’s Office, Cal Fire, American Medical Response and Life Flight responded to the scene of collision around 4:30 p.m., authorities said.
Emergency responders provided medical aid to the bicyclist at the scene before they were transported to Stanford Medical Center by air ambulance, authorities added. At the time of the transport, the bicyclist was alive but in critical condition.
The bicyclist succumbed to injuries sustained in the crash on Saturday, authorities said.
