The Dangers Cyclists Face on the Road

Whether you cycle for exercise, commuting, or recreation, you know the risks of sharing the road with larger vehicles. A distracted, drowsy, speeding, or reckless driver can cause devastating injuries in an instant. Unfortunately, bicycle accidents are on the rise:

  • 743 cyclists lost their lives and nearly 48,000 were injured in motor vehicle crashes in 2013, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
  • Alcohol was involved in 34% of fatal bicycle accidents that year.

Other common situations that lead to a bicycle accident include:

  • A left-turning vehicle at an intersection or through a gap in traffic
  • A right-turning vehicle who is traveling ahead of a cyclist
  • A car door opening without looking
  • Being side swiped by a passing vehicle
  • Rear-ended by a vehicle
  • Bad roadways or walkways
  • Rider error such as not paying attention to surroundings
  • A crash or collision into an object
  • A dog chasing the cyclist

What to do after a bicycle accident

The steps you take after a bike accident can be essential to your case. If you get into a bike accident, keep these tips in mind:

1. Don’t leave the accident scene until you speak with the police, even if you don’t think you’re injured. In many cases, accident victims don’t begin to feel pain until hours or days after the crash.

2. Don’t try to negotiate with the driver. Some drivers may accept the blame only to recant later to the insurance company. It’s best to wait for the police so they can document the incident.

3. Obtain contact information from any witnesses nearby.

4. Take photos of the scene, your bike, the other vehicle (if possible) and any injuries you sustained.
