Bicycle Accident Injuries
Bicycle riders share most of the same rights and responsibilities as motorists. However, many motorists are ignorant of that fact or willfully neglectful when it comes to sharing the road with bicyclists.
Bicycle accidents take many forms. While some accidents are the fault of the bicycle rider, the overwhelming majority are to blame on careless drivers of motor vehicles.
Common causes of bicycle accidents include:
- Failing to yield right of way
- Failing to see the bicycle rider
- Crowding the bicycle off the shoulder of the road
- Colliding with bicycles in intersections
Because bicycle riders are relatively unprotected, the injuries sustained in bicycle accidents can be severe and life threatening. Bicycle accident victims can suffer head injuries, spinal cord injuries, broken bones, road rash and even wrongful death.
