Bicycle Accidents

While all bikers should take precautions to protect themselves such as wearing a helmet, signaling before turning, and wearing reflective gear at night, it is ultimately drivers who determine the safety of bicyclists.

A bicyclist can do everything in their power to protect themselves from harm, but if motorists choose to operate their vehicles carelessly, then those steps are of little use. Some of the ways that motorists put bicyclists at harm include:

Failing to respect the integrity of the bike lane.
Not looking for oncoming bicyclists when making right-hand turns.
Texting while driving, which can cause a vehicle to veer into the bike lane.
Running red lights, which may put crossing bicyclists in harm’s way.
Engaging in any form of distracted driving, which takes attention from the road where bicyclists may be.

Bicyclists are not only difficult to spot compared with larger vehicles, but their riders are also completely exposed to injury if they are struck by a motor vehicle. This can lead to serious injury or death. It is important that you speak to a lawyer to potentially obtain compensation if you or a loved one sustained losses as the result of a bicycle accident.

You may be able to receive a financial award for:

Medical bills
Lost wages
Pain and suffering
Punitive damages

If a loved one died in a bicycle accident, compensation could also cover:

Lost future income.
Funeral costs.
Loss of consortium.
