The cyclists were catapulted off their bicycles and into the windscreen of a Toyota hatchback on Beach Rd just after 7.30pm.

Police said the driver continued 600m along Beach Rd in his badly damaged car before stopping.

Paramedics rushed to the scene where they treated the brothers, aged 33 and 35.

They had been out on a Christmas Eve ride along the popular cycling route
when they were hit from behind.

Ambulance Victoria spokesman Ray Rowe said the pair were in serious condition when paramedics arrived.

“They won’t be enjoying Christmas puddings for Christmas,” he said.

One of the brothers was taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital and the other to the Alfred hospital.

Also, when are they going to fix the lights so they are timed for a cyclists doing average speeds to get through the intersection between when the light just turns amber to when the other direction gets a green. It pisses me off having to sprint through when the light turned amber a fraction of a second after I entered the intersection, so I don't get a speed demon going the other direction (or a hook-turner) running me over when the other lights go green. I also think that someone with road sense (looks both ways and is aware of surroundings) on a bicycle is in very little danger to themselves or others compared to a driver who obeys the lights, but takes off on a green light without hesitating the microsecond to look both ways and ensure there are no red light runners, slower pedestrians or cyclists still coming through, or even a car with engine troubles. There's more to using the road safely than just "red means stop, green means go".
