Mission Bay, CA (January 8, 2019) On the evening of January 7^th, a hit-and-run bicycle accident happened at the intersection of West Mission Bay Drive and Dana Landing Road. According to the reports, a 40-year-old woman attempted to ride her bicycle across the roadway when a sedan struck her, stopped briefly, and then fled the scene. The paramedics responded when they received a call at around 8:00 p.m. When they arrived, they found the bicyclist suffering from major injuries and transported her to a nearby hospital for treatment. The San Diego Police Department is currently looking for the driver responsible. The woman described the vehicle as a tan or gold 4-door sedan.

Bicycle Accidents in California

Studies show that hundreds of bicyclists lose their lives every year in the United States. The most common cause is negligent driving, which includes speeding, using a cell phone, driving under the influence, and any other distracting activity. Because this was a hit-and-run accident, it’s clear that negligent behavior was involved. Once the police find and arrest the driver responsible, the injured bicyclist could file a personal injury lawsuit with the help of a personal injury attorney.
