Police tape (CC licensed by freefotouk on Flickr)Cyclist killed after collision involving lorry in Perth
Police Scotland have appealed for witnesses after a cyclist was killed in a collision involving a lorry in Perth yesterday.
The fatal crash happened in Main Street in the Bridgend district of the Scottish city at 11.50 am on Saturday morning.
A statement from police said: "Police Scotland can confirm that a woman has sadly died following a road traffic collision on Main Street, Bridgend, Perth, on Saturday, 7 July, 2018.
"The incident was reported to police about 11.50 am and involved a pedal cyclist and a large goods vehicle.
"Any person who witnessed the incident and who has not yet spoken to police is asked to call 101 and quote incident 1818 of 7 July, 2018."

RIP, desperately sad for family and friends, you just can't imagine how they must be feeling, more so when you know these things can (mostly) be avoided by government intervention.
RIP sister.
Never good news when the police tape or broken bike image pops up on road.cc news page.
R.I.P.
