A Far Rockaway man was killed in a motor vehicle accident as his 2014 Dodge Charger collided with the trailer of a semi-truck last week, according to police.

Anthony Dosramos, a 23-year-old of Pinson Street, was traveling at a high rate-of-speed April 17 when he approached the intersection of Rockaway and Guy R. Brewer Boulevards going westbound, cops said. The tractor-trailer driver was approaching in the opposite direction and attempting to make a left turn in to 230-59 Rockaway Blvd. Dosramos tried to pass the truck, NYPD determined, and was pinned underneath the trailer.

The 74-year-old truck driver had remained at the scene and was uninjured.

A third vehicle, a 2016 Ford Expedition was stopped at a red light and sustained some minor property damage from flying debris, police said.

EMS responders removed Dosramos and his 28-year-old passenger from the car and transported the two to Jamaica Hospital, where they were admitted in critical condition.

Dosramos died from his injuries April 20, police said.
