Delete: Fails GNG. Human interest biographical story. Sourced from the Scott Peoples Foundation, CycleSport Victoria, Bicycle Federation of Australia, and CycloSportif Victoria that are either primary sources or too close to the subject. The ABC News and Herald Sun sources would be good but they are centered on "Cycle crash inquest told of driver's poor sight", and "Killer driver near-blind when champion cyclist killed". This is not so much an article as a memorial or obituary. Otr500 (talk) 19:04, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Otr500. From a Factiva search there's some coverage of the Scott Peoples Foundation and the Scott Peoples Cycling Carnival, both named in the subject's honour, but mostly as an aside to articles about the race or road safety, and mostly limited to local newspapers. Coverage on the subject himself is limited to news reports on the initial accident and subsequent coronial inquiry. Fails WP:NOTNEWS regardless. Kb.au (talk) 13:58, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete A sad and unfortunate story but not notable. WP:NOTNEWS. Could perhaps be part of an article on medical road safety laws in Australia if we knew the outcome of the coroner's recommendations, and any followup. Aoziwe (talk) 11:32, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
