The CHP said the SUV crashed into the deceased for unknown reasons. Dimopoulos, who was ejected from the bike at the point of collision, suffered severe injuries and was found unresponsive by first responders.
The paramedics at the scene pronounced him dead, and the driver of the SUV whose name was not revealed went unscathed. The driver stayed back at the scene and cooperated with the authorities.

When an accident occurs, authorities advise that those involved should not panic, but keep a level head. California Vehicle Code provides that a person involved in an accident should stop at the scene or the next possible place where traffic will not get impeded.
Call 911 if there’s an injured or dead person and collect witness statements before the witnesses disperse. When the authorities arrive, provide full and accurate contact details and driver’s license information.
Remain at the scene until the authorities clear it and be available for any follow-up question. When necessary, contact an attorney and discuss the possible legal implications, if any.
