A 60-year-old man involved in a hit-and-run with a cyclist last week had his license suspended for three months and was ticketed for leaving the scene of the crash.

The collision occurred around 6:15 p.m. last Thursday on Beach Drive near Estevan Avenue in Oak Bay.

The driver left the scene when he found out police were called to the incident.

Fortunately, there were no serious injuries and officers were able to locate the suspect driver at his home where they conducted an impaired driving investigation.

He was then issued a 90-day driving ban, a 24 hour driving prohibition, and a violation ticket for failing to remain at the scene of a collision.

There was no damage to the bicycle or vehicle.
