Florida Bicycle Accident Lawyers
As the cost of owning an automobile rises, many people have increasingly turned to alternative forms of transportation including popular options like bicycling. When cyclists are forced to share the road with other vehicles the rider may be at risk of severe physical injury in the event of an accident. It is the responsibility of every individual on the road to exercise caution and follow the established rules and guidelines to protect others, and failure to do so may result in serious injury-accidents.
At Winston Law Firm, we believe that victims of serious accidents should take legal action if they have been hurt by the reckless or negligent actions of another person. If you or someone you love has been hurt in a bicycle accident, contact an experienced Florida personal injury lawyer at (954) 475-9666.
Causes of Bicycle Accidents
Some of the most common causes of bicycle accidents include:
- Failure to maintain proper distance from cyclists on the roadway
- Using bicycle lanes for automobile travel
- Failing to acknowledge the rights of bicyclists when on the road
- Reckless driving
- Drunk driving
It is the responsibility of all motorists to protect themselves and others when traveling on the road. Any instances of negligence can lead to catastrophic accidents and injured individuals may be eligible to pursue legal action to recover compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses.
