The most common claim defense attorneys make about bicycle-car accidents is that bicycles do not belong on the road. According to the law, bicyclists have the same rights to roads as trucks and cars.

 

We consistently see bicycle-auto accidents where a cyclist pulling out of a side road or parking lot is hit because drivers are not paying attention. Another very common accident we see is when a motor vehicle is waiting to turn left and does not see the cyclist travelling towards them. Bicycle-truck accidents are widespread, but could easily be avoided. These are all common instances of negligence by motor vehicle drivers in bicycle-car accidents that we can help you with.

 

On average, there are over 50,000 bicycle-auto accident injuries reported each year, and over 800 fatalities. The actual number of bicycle-car accidents is much higher, considering that most bicycle-auto accidents are never reported to police.

·        Male bicyclists accounted for 88% of those killed and 82% of those injured last year

·        Nearly 70% of all fatal bicycle crashes involve head injuries

·        Only 20-25% of all bicyclists wear bicycle helmets.

·        In 2008:

o       773 bicyclists were killed in bicycle auto accidents

o       44,000 were injured in traffic crashes.

o       Children 14 and younger accounted for 98 of those fatalities (13%), making bicycle-auto accidents one of the most frequent causes of injury-related death for young children.

 

 

Here are some guidelines that may help lessen the injuries from a bicycle auto accident, or prevent it altogether:

 

1. Wear bright, reflective clothing
2. Attach lights to you or your bike: a white headlamp and a red rear reflector
3. Always wear a helmet
4. Make sure you bicycle is in proper condition: inflated tires, working brakes, etc…
5. Be aware of your surroundings, and remember that high-volume roads require more awareness
6. Ride with traffic. Studies show riding against traffic is three times more dangerous
7. If possible avoid night riding, as fatalities occurred most frequently between 5 and 9 p.m. 
8. Don’t hug the right side of the road, ride further left into the center. This actually protects you from being hit from behind, because drivers are looking down the center of the lane. This is especially important at intersections so that cars see you near the middle of the lane, preventing them turning out in front of you.
9. Use hand signals
10. Do not ride with headphones
11. Make eye contact with other drivers; never assume someone sees you

Call us immediately for free advice and a free assessment of your bicycle auto accident causing serious injury or death case. In our experience, the sooner someone starts investigating and obtaining witness statements on your behalf involving a serious bicycle-car accident, the better chance of proving and winning your case.

 

If the Law Offices of Jason A. Waechter do not personally handle your case, we will refer you to a proven specialist in the city and state your accident took place, all with the same no win, no fee promise. Just because two law firms are involved never means you pay more than the typical contingency fee. In other words, you may get two firms for the same fees as one, and there are no fees unless we collect money for you.

 

To associate with the best lawyers, we have researched the legal periodicals, law journals, verdict reports, and many other materials. These lawyers have winning verdicts, have won awards, speak at seminars teaching other attorneys, and all have excellent reputations. They are known and respected by judges and defense attorneys and fear and revered by insurance companies.

 

Call now. Do not wait; waiting could mean the difference between winning and losing. The faster you retain a firm and the sooner the bike accident is investigated by our accident reconstructionists and investigators, the better the chance of preserving evidence to prove a substantially winning case for you and your family. Remember, you are not obligated in any way when you call.
