How do bicycle accidents happen?
The cause of accidents can be attributed to many reasons. Maybe a car or motorcycle passed a bicycle illegally. Maybe unsafe guardrails, poorly maintained road surfaces, or a faulty traffic signal contributed to the accident.

Share the road. That’s something that bicycle advocacy groups preach all the time. But many drivers don’t understand the rules of the road involving a bicycle. So when a 3,600-pound car runs into a 30-pound bicycle, the results can be catastrophic. Some motorists tailgate bicycles, pass bicycles at dangerous speeds, or don’t give them enough room. When a motorist violates safe driving laws, they can be held responsible.
Your responsibility as a cyclist.
As a cyclist, you are expected to follow safety regulations. You should always ride carefully and be sure to wear the proper safety equipment, including a helmet. If you are carrying a passenger or a child, they should be wearing helmets as well. While safety equipment can’t completely protect you should an accident occur, it can make the difference between life and death.
What to do if you’re involved in a bicycle accident.
Be sure to get the contact information, including insurance carrier information, from the driver of the vehicle. Avoid making any statements to the driver or any police indicating that the accident was your fault. Be sure to call an experienced San Diego bicycle accident lawyer. While a skilled attorney can’t make your injuries go away, they can get you the resources to cover:
- Your medical expenses
- Your lost wages
- Your pain and suffering
Don’t delay in calling an experienced San Diego bicycle accident attorney.
