Lake Worth, FL (April 7, 2019) - A 50-year-old bicyclist died while trying to cross the road in Lake Worth on Saturday, April 6th. The crash took place on Hypoluxo Road just after 8:00 p.m.

According to the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, David Guerero attempted to ride his bicycle across Hypoluxo when he was struck by a 2014 BMW that was oncoming in his direction of travel. The force of the crash caused Guerero to be thrown from his bike. After being ejected, he struck the car's windshield before being thrown off onto the ground. Guerero was not in a designated crosswalk at the time of the crash.

This accident remains under investigation. 

In 2015, over 800 bicyclists lost their lives in Florida bicycle accidents. The number has continued to rise every year and Florida now ranks among the top of all states when it comes to injuries and deaths for bicyclists. More than half of bicycle accidents occur when someone fails to yield the right of way. Many bicycle accidents will also occur at night, along roadways with poor lighting, where it can be difficult to see a bicyclist.
