Drivers of cars, buses, and trucks have a legal duty to abide by all laws of the road. This includes giving the right of way to bicyclists who share the road with them.

The most common cause of an injured bicyclist is by the negligent driving of a vehicle by another.

In some bicycle accidents a person may recover quickly from their injuries, and in others accidents the injuries may be catastrophic and devastating and require long term treatment and care. Your bicycle accident injury may make it difficult or impossible to be gainfully employed or require extended leave from work or school.

Some examples of a serious personal injury arising from a bicycle accident may include any of the following:

• Brain injury
• Paralysis
• Amputation
• Surgery to the leg, feet, back, neck, bones, ligaments, or any other part of your body
• Spinal cord injury
• Wrongful death

A person who sustains any type of such injuries may have their whole life changed for years to come. Often times they will suffer financially, incur pain and suffering, be unable to work, or be able to enjoy the life they had before the accident.

You will be able to pursue compensation for all your losses related to the negligence of another in a bicycle accident. Losses you will be able to pursue may include:

• Current and future medical treatment
• Costs of rehabilitation
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Economic and wage losses
