Renewed calls for cyclist safety following recent fatalities
Cape Times
|August 04, 2025
THE safety of cyclists has once again been thrust into the spotlight after a series of tragic incidents in and around Cape Town left the local cycling community reeling, with at least five cyclists killed or injured in recent days.
The latest incident on Saturday involves three cyclists who were involved in a collision with a tour bus on Chapman's Peak Drive, according to Pedal Power Association (PPA).
"One of the cyclists passed away at the scene of the crash while the other was airlifted to hospital and the third sustained lesser injuries."
In another incident, a bicycle technician from Olympic Cycles, according to PPA, was struck by a vehicle in Claremont after swerving to avoid a suddenly opened car door. Another cyclist sustained injuries when hit by a truck in an alleged hit-and-run incident along Wellington Road in Durbanville. Two more were injured on Bottelary Road during a collision with a vehicle.
