An Australian tourist has died in a horror hit-and-run motorcycle crash on a remote road in Bali.
Bradley Semmens, 33, was struck by another motorcycle at about 3.30pm on Tuesday while riding a Honda Scoopy along the Persinggahan Highway, near the border of KlungKung and Karangasem regencies, on the Indonesian Island’s southeast coast.
Klungkung Police spokesperson Agus Widiono said the motorcyclist travelling in the opposite direction crossed into oncoming traffic and collided with Mr Semmens and then left him for dead on the side of the road.
Mr Semmens was flung from his motorcycle and suffered a head injury before dying at the scene.
‘(Police) are now carrying out investigations to find out the identity of the motorbike driver who was involved in the accident with the victim,’ Widiono said.

Wayan Toya Arnawa, a witness, told police the road was relatively quiet at the time of the crash.
Despite locals swarming to the crash site to come to Mr Semmens’ aid, there is no description of the perpetrator.
‘Because they were busy helping the injured person, the perpetrator was not identified and had already fled to the east,’ Widiono said, according to Coconuts.
Police and ambulance arrived at the scene shortly after and pronounced Mr Semmens dead.
His body was taken to the Klunkung General Hosopital to be officially identified, where it remains awaiting ‘official embassy procedures’ according to Widiono.
