Bicycle Accident in California

In 2015, about 45,000 bicycle accidents occurred throughout the United States. Most of the time these accidents are caused by negligence, just like accidents involving two motor vehicles. Because bicycles are significantly smaller than motor vehicles, it’s easy for distracted drivers to accidentally hit bicyclists, especially when turning or switching lanes. Because motor vehicles directly strike bicyclists, the impact easily injures them since their bodies are exposes. Some common injuries include broken bones, internal injuries, and head injuries.

It’s very important for injured bicyclists to seek help from an experienced California personal injury for help with their personal injury lawsuits.
