The victim was identified as Robert Coiro, 43, of Bethpage. He was pronounced dead at the scene, authorities said.
Nassau County detectives said the fatal crash took place at 12:35 a.m. when a 2012 Freightliner entered the road, Route 107, from a driveway at 840 South Broadway. The truck was turning northbound when it collided with Coiro's southbound 2005 Mercury.
The operator of the tractor-trailer was not injured. The Mercury was impounded for safety checks, police said.
