Mohammad Ali Abdulamir, 30, faced Shepparton Magistrates’ Court briefly.
He is charged with negligently causing serious injury, perjury, reckless conduct endangering death and reckless conduct endangering serious injury.
The charges come after a 38-year-old Shepparton woman was struck by a truck during a bike race at Dookie on September 21 last year.
Mr Abdulamir was a traffic warden during the race.
Police allege Mr Abdulamir directed a truck on to a closed road during the race, and that he also perjured himself when making a statement to police saying that he did not direct the truck on to the closed road.
The matter will go to a two-day committal hearing in December, where the evidence against Mr Abdulamir will be tested.
In court on August 13, Mr Abdulamir’s solicitor Luke Slater was granted an application to cross-examine six witnesses at a committal.
He also told the court there was “significant” dashcam footage available, and he had only received a small portion of it so far, but more was to be provided by police.
Mr Slater also indicated to the court that his client intended to plead guilty to charges of driving while suspended and speeding in Shepparton East on June 18. These stemmed from a different incident.
These charges will be heard before the committal for the Dookie incident.
