The 51-year-old Ann Arbor man hit by a car on Washtenaw Avenue Sunday night remains in serious but stable condition, police said Tuesday.
Investigators also released more information about the incident.
The incident occurred just before 11 p.m. in the 2200 block of Washtenaw Avenue between the East Stadium Boulevard split and Brockman Boulevard. The 51-year-old was inbound when he was hit by a 24-year-old Ypsilanti man driving a Honda Accord in the same direction, said Ann Arbor police Officer Steven Dye.
Dye said the bicyclist was riding in the left travel lane and his bike did not have lights on it.
“The driver just didn’t see him and struck him from behind,” Dye added.
The 51-year-old man suffered head lacerations and broken bones and was transported to University of Michigan Hospital where he remains, officials said.
The 24-year-old did pull over and was on scene when responders arrived, Dye said.
Investigators don't believe speed was a factor, however they are still looking into whether alcohol played a part.
Dye said along that stretch of the road, a bicyclist should be as far to the right as possible. At night, the bike should have a white light in front and a red light in back.
Neither the driver of the car nor the bicyclist have been issued any citations. Dye said that would be up to the prosecutor's office once police submit their findings.
The investigation into the incident continues.
