The news of Angus Collins’ untimely death on Thursday 2nd February 2023 came as a shock to those who knew him. The Melbourne cyclist had been riding in West Melbourne at the time of his fatal accident, which was allegedly caused by a concrete truck. Footscray Road was the site for this tragedy, occurring shortly before 12.30 p.m. It is difficult to comprehend how such a tragic event could occur within the span of just minutes and how it will affect the loved ones left in its wake. Despite no single person or entity being responsible, Angus Collins’ death serves as a reminder of how vigilant we must remain when engaging with motor vehicles on Melbourne’s roads.

But it easily could have been.it could have been prevented, it’s a horrific crossing and it shouldn’t take someone paying the ultimate price for it to change.RIP mate 💔

How did Angus Collins die ?

The tragic and unfortunate death of a cyclist in Melbourne is the third fatality recorded on Victorian roads this morning. Paramedics were dispatched to the scene, but they could not bring him back to life. The truck driver, a male, was hospitalized with no changes to his condition. At present, he is supporting investigations into what exactly happened. While two outbound lanes on Footscray Road have recently been made available, heavy vehicles trying to use that road are still likely facing long traffic wait times for their destination at the port. Numerous lanes on Dock Link Road remain closed due to the accident. These terrible accidents serve as another reminder of just how important it is for all drivers to be cautious and aware of one another while traversing roads in order to keep themselves and others safe.

On Thursday 3rd February 2023, Tony Maughan set up a GoFundMe account to gather donations for Angus Collins’ funeral and memorial expenses. Unfortunately, only $1,885 out of the $3,000 target had been collected at the time of this report. Unfortunately, despite 22 donors having contributed at the time of writing, no single donation exceeded $250 – an issue which has dismayed campaign supporters across the local area.

Excerpts from the page indicate that Angus tragically lost his life while participating in one of his favorite activities – riding his bike. As such, the Brunswick Cycling Club believes it is their responsibility to look after Angus’ family in this difficult moment by providing financial assistance to cover necessary costs. Whilst money won’t bring back a young man so full of life with his beautiful smiling face, any contribution towards the cause can help bring comfort and closure during this testing time.
