What Are the Most Common Causes of Bicycle Accidents?

By far, the leading cause of bicycle accidents in the United States is negligence. Negligent motorists, pedestrians, and even fellow cyclists can all cause serious collisions that leave innocent victims facing catastrophic injuries, new disabilities, and significant financial hardships.

Examples of negligent conduct that frequently leads to bicycle accidents include:

Additionally, certain defects may contribute to or cause bicycle accidents or worsen their effects. For example, a defective bicycle helmet may fail to adequately protect a cyclist in a crash, or a defectively designed roadway may cause a cyclist to take a turn too quickly.

What Damages Can Be Recovered in a Bike Accident Claim?

Depending on the severity of your injuries, you may be able to recover compensation after the crash by filing a personal injury protection (PIP) claim. All motorists in Florida must carry $10,000 in PIP coverage in addition to minimum liability insurance. This coverage is available regardless of who was at fault for the accident and is intended to provide compensation to injured individuals more quickly and more easily than traditional personal injury claims.
However, PIP coverage is limited, and it may not apply in your case. If your damages exceed $10,000, if your injuries meet the Florida “serious injury” threshold, and/or if PIP coverage does not apply, you can file a standard personal injury claim against the at-fault person or party. You will need to prove that the other person/party was at least partially at fault for the accident to have grounds for a claim.

Through a standard personal injury claim, you can seek compensation for:

Our Starke bicycle accident lawyers can help you understand your specific legal options and which course of action—whether filing a PIP claim or pursuing a personal injury lawsuit—may be best for your situation.
