Why do you need a bicycle accident lawyer?
Bicycles are frequently used by both locals and tourists for getting around, plus as a way to have fun and exercise. Because of this rise in cycling, there are more bicycle accidents. Legally, automobiles are required to provide three feet of clearance when overtaking a cyclist, though many motorists don’t know this or don’t follow it, which results in severe and sometimes fatal crashes. A collision is a frightening event that can have long-term effects.
If you’ve been hurt in a bicycle accident, you might experience severe and lasting harm, such as:
- Spinal cord damage
- Fractured bones
- Injuries within the body
- Brain trauma
- Injuries to the head or neck
- Fatality
Being in a bike accident, whether you’re the one hurt or someone close to the cyclist, is scary. After an accident, you should:
- Report it to the police – your injuries might not be immediately apparent
- Get the driver’s and any witnesses’ contact details
- Document the scene – take photos if you can
- Preserve evidence – don’t repair your bike or get a new helmet right away
- Have a strategy – consult a lawyer before dealing with insurance companies
