Precautions for Bicyclists

Cyclists and vehicle operators are expected to share the roads. Because of the size and weight of vehicles on the roadways, it’s important for bicyclists to take certain precautions to better protect themselves. Not only is this important from a safety standpoint, taking these precautions could also help your case hold up better in court if you are involved in a biking accident.

Tips for bicyclists:

  • Don’t ride against traffic
  • Ride in bike lanes when present, or on paved shoulders
  • Ride single file on curving roads without shoulders or lanes
  • Indicate your movements through the use of hand signals
  • Make eye contact with drivers
  • Wear protective, reflective gear when riding

Whatever the cause of your accident, our firm can thoroughly investigate the circumstances and fight to hold the appropriate party responsible for your injuries. Whether your bike was manufactured improperly or whether a driver was on his or her phone and didn’t see you, our bicycle accident lawyer can fight for justice on your behalf.

 If you are ever in the unfortunate circumstances of needing a car accident lawyer, you will most likely have received a Drivers Exchange of Information. When a person gets into a car accident most of the time the local authorities will respond to the scene. They arrive at the scene assess the situation and issue a drivers exchange of information. Why The Drivers Exchange of Information is Important. When the local authorities arrive on the scene they usually speak to each driver, passengers and any witnesses. The officer will typically collect information about every one they talk to and what the officers findings were. The officer will then put this information in a police report.
