A MOTORCYCLI­ST was killed after slamming into the rear of a car in Brooklyn, police said Saturday.

The 28-year-old motorcycli­st, identified by police sources as Felix Molina-Peralta, was traveling west in the left lane of Eastern Parkway in Bedford-Stuyvesant when a Honda Civic moved into his lane as the two approached Thomas S. Boyland St. about 10:45 p.m. Friday, cops said.

The motorcycli­st slammed into the back of the Honda and was thrown from his bike and onto the asphalt.

Police sources believe MolinaPera­lta didn't respond quickly enough, or was in the Honda driver’s blind spot when she made the lane change.

Medics rushed the victim to Brookdale University Hospital, where he died.

The 27-year-old Honda driver remained at the scene. No charges were immediatel­y filed.
