Anyone who witnessed the incident, especially those with dash cam or mobile phone footage, has been urged to contact Crime Stoppers.<\/p>\n
It comes after a 65-year-old male runner died after being hit by a Transperth bus in Perth’s south-east on March 31.<\/p>\n
The man had been on his morning run when the collision happened near the intersection of Forest Lakes Drive and Garden Street in Thornlie about 7.40am.<\/p>\n
E-rideable laws reviewed<\/p>\n
Prior to the man’s death, authorities said at least 12 people had lost their lives on WA roads and footpaths due to e-rideable accidents since 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That included Perth father Thanh Phan, who was run down by a drunk e-scooter rider<\/a> in May last year.<\/p>\n Mr Phan’s death triggered a landmark review of laws governing e-rideables in WA, including e-scooters and e-bikes.<\/p>\n The review is yet to lead to any change, with the WA government last month urging the Commonwealth to act first by implementing a national crackdown<\/a>.<\/p>\n
