Why Bicycle Accidents Are so Dangerous
When a collision between two motor vehicles occurs, all drivers and passengers usually have the advantage of cabin safety features-along with being protected from a direct impact. Bicyclists, however, do not have this luxury and motorist negligence can inflict life-altering, even life-threatening trauma.
What does motorist negligence look like in bicycle accidents?
Drift into bicycle lanes and road shoulders
Not looking before exiting a vehicle (door injuries)
Tailgating (following cyclists too closely)
Failing to properly signal at an intersection
Distracted driving due to personal devices, smartphones, etc.
Impaired driving due to drugs or alcohol
Speeding
