A motorcyclist was seriously injured Friday morning in a collision with a tractor-trailer on a Miramar-area street.

The 36-year-old man was riding in the 9700 block of Miramar Road, trying to use a bicycle lane to pass the cargo vehicle, when the crash occurred shortly before 10 a.m., according to San Diego Police.

Paramedics took him to a hospital for treatment of a fractured pelvis, Officer Tony Martinez said.

No other injuries were reported.
