Seeking Compensation for Your Injuries
An increase in environmental awareness has led to a growing number of people making the choice to use bicycles for transportation. Statistics from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) show a 9% increase in bicycle accidents, including fatal accidents, over the past decade.
Accidents between vehicles and bicycles often occur due to:
- Speeding
- Aggressive driving behavior
- Driver failing to see the cyclist
- Distracted driving
- A driver or passenger opening a car door
- Construction zone
- Roads in poor repair
Because cyclists don’t have the structural protection like passengers in a car, they are more likely to be severely injured in an accident.
Compensation may be available for damages that arise from injuries sustained in a bicycle accident, including medical bills, future medical care, lost income, and pain and suffering. An experienced personal injury attorney can evaluate your accident to determine the compensation that may be possible for you.
