The 𝔠r𝘢sh comes weeks after a man riding an e-bike was fatally struck by a pick-up truck driver in the Bronx, cops and sources said. 

The 50-year-old biker was heading west on East 145th Street when the truck driver, traveling south on Brook Avenue in Mott Haven, hit him around 8:25 a.m. Oct. 7, according to authorities and law enforcement sources. 

The pick-up truck driver, a 55-year-old man, stayed at the scene and did not face any charges, police said.

And last month, a delivery woman was killed when a dump truck plowed into her e-bike and then drove off in the heart of Herald Square, according to cops and an advocacy group.

The truck driver collided with the 50-year-old cyclist the morning of Sept. 28, as both headed west on West 34th Street, approaching Seventh Avenue, police said. 

The woman — who was riding a JOCO rental e-bike and making a delivery — was pronounced dead at the scene.
