Understanding Bicycle Accidents
Bicycle accidents can result in severe injuries and life-altering consequences. As vulnerable road users, bicyclists face unique risks when sharing the road with motor vehicles.
Common causes of bicycle accidents include:
- Negligent drivers: Many bicycle accidents occur due to driver negligence, such as distracted driving, speeding, failure to yield, or violating traffic laws.
- Dooring accidents: Opening a car door without checking for oncoming cyclists can lead to serious collisions known as “dooring accidents.”
- Intersection collisions: Intersections pose a high risk for bicycle accidents, with motorists failing to yield right-of-way or running red lights.
- Unsafe road conditions: Poorly maintained roads, inadequate signage, and dangerous obstacles can contribute to bicycle accidents.
- Cycling infrastructure issues: Lack of dedicated bicycle lanes or inadequate infrastructure can increase the likelihood of accidents.
