ROY — A motorcyclist was critically injured when his bike collided with a car Tuesday.

Roy police received a report of a crash at 5528 S. 1900 West about 3:30 p.m. A southbound car was turning left into a parking lot when a motorcycle headed north on 1900 West slammed into the vehicle, throwing the driver from the bike, police said.
