Stunning footage shows sparks fly as an out-of-control driver appears to drag two cyclists down a busy Harlem street — making no effort to stop — during a horrific crash that killed one person and injured four Thursday.

The unidentified 49-year-old speed demon is shown in surveillance footage dragging two victims and possibly a bike under the hood of the car at around 8:05 p.m. Thursday, according to police and other sources.

Frightened pedestrians strolling near West 125th Street and Frederick Douglass Boulevard frantically jump out of the way as the Red Hyundai Tucson driver “kept hitting the gas,” according to the footage and witnesses.

“I seen two men laying there, they can’t move, face down, those were the two people who got hit on their bikes and dragged by the car,” said a witness, who gave only the initials C.B for a name.

“He hit the cars and he ran over people. One guy went up in the air, but the other two were dragged, until the car hit a police car,” C.B. said. “Then his car swerved over to this side, where a truck was, and that’s what stopped him.”

“We came in from Minnesota for a funeral,” C.B. added. “And last night we almost got taken out.”

The two cyclists, ages 33 and 28, were left sprawled out on the ground in a bus lane, according to witnesses and footage provided to the post.

“We saw the bike over there. The black [cyclist] was moving a little bit, his head was bleeding like crazy, but the Spanish guy looked like he was sleeping,” said a witness who works nearby.

“[The driver] looked like he was drunk or something,” the worker added. “You cannot speed like that.”

The driver slammed into parked NYPD cruiser and collided with a tractor-trailer truck after hitting the cyclists, according to witnesses and cops. 

The injured cyclists were rushed to hospitals in critical condition and the 28-year-old was later pronounced dead, according to authorities. 

The driver of the car was arrested and not injured. No charges have been announced.
