Two motorcyclists in their 20s died on Friday.

The first incident occurred on Friday afternoon in Footscray when a 25-year-old motorcyclist died after colliding with a car at the intersection of Ballarat Road and Dawson Avenue.

The driver of the car, a 59-year-old Mount Waverley man, was arrested and interviewed at the scene before being released pending further enquiries.

Later that evening, another motorcyclist died in when he crashed with a car on the Black Spur in Healesville about 7:15pm.

The rider, a 21-year-old from Somerville, died at the scene. Police will prepare a report for the coroner.

On Saturday, a 75-year-old woman died after being hit by a vehicle at a pedestrian crossing at Dennington, near Warrnambool, just after midday. She died at the scene.

The 53-year-old male driver of the car provided assistance to the woman and will be interviewed by police.

About 6:20pm last night, a 26-year-old Nunawading man died after losing control of his motorbike and crashing into a tree in Blairgowrie, near the Mornington Peninsula.

The bike's passenger, a 29-year-old Blairgowrie man, was flown to hospital with life-threatening injuries.

At roughly the same time, police were called to a fatal crash between two cars in Maryborough in western Victoria.

One of the drivers, a 47-year-old man from Maryborough, died at the scene. His passenger, a 75-year-old woman from Maryborough, was flown to hospital with serious injuries.

A 17-year-old boy was flown to a Melbourne Hospital with life-threatening injuries. He remains in hospital in a serious condition.

Another 17-year-old male was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries, while the driver of the car, who stopped at the scene, was not injured.

Meanwhile, a 20-year-old Warrnambool man was yesterday charged over a collision that allegedly killed 70-year-old local cyclist Clive Coomber on Hopkins Falls Road in Cudgee in March.

Police said the man was charged with a number of offences, including culpable driving causing death, and failing to stop and render assistance.

He was bailed and is to front the Warrnambool Magistrates' Court on December 4.
