The woman immediately called 911 and remained at the scene.
The bicyclist was taken to a hospital in critical condition where he later died.
Speed, alcohol or drugs were not involved, police said.
This is the 14th traffic-related fatality on Oahu this year compared to nine at the same time last year.
