A man has been taken to hospital under lights and sirens after a serious vehicle and cyclist incident on the Sunshine Coast.

The Queensland Ambulance Service said that the 40-year-old was rushed to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a life-threatening condition after the incident along Maroochydore Road on Saturday, at about 2.46pm.
