Bicycle Accidents in California

Studies show that 80 percent of bicycle accidents that occur nationwide happen in broad daylight. Most of the time drivers are distracted when they strike bicyclists, especially when they are making turns. When drivers put their eyes down on their phones even for a few seconds, that’s enough to cause a major accident that leaves bicyclists suffering from potential catastrophic or fatal injuries.

At Brady Law Group, we know how easily bicyclists can sustain injuries if a distracted driver accidentally strikes them. We have helped a large number of injured cyclists file and win personal injury lawsuits against negligent parties. We believe drivers who fail to maintain their legal duty of driving responsibly should be held financially liable for all damages and losses.
