A cyclist has been seriously injured after being hit by a car in Maddington yesterday afternoon.

The cyclist was launched into the air.

Confronting footage shows the moment the Ford Focus slams into the 43-year-old bike rider, launching him into the air on Pitchford Avenue.

The accused man, 30, appeared in court yesterday on a string of serious charges, including failing to stop.

He will remain behind bars until his next court appearance.
