Causes of Car versus Bicycle Accidents

A car accident involving a bicycle may be attributed to different causes. Although driver negligence is a common cause of these collisions, there are also other issues to take into consideration, including:

• Poor design of bike baths, making an accident more likely due to confusion regarding the right of way or not providing a bicyclist enough room to ride safely.
• Automotive defects or defective bicycle parts that cause an accident to occur even when both parties are driving cautiously and obeying traffic laws.
• Children riding bicycles - when the rules of the road are not fully understood, a child may be at greater risk of involvement in a car versus bicycle accident by darting into the road suddenly or violating a traffic law in regard to the right of way, stopping at a stop sign, etc.

With our experience in handling car accident claims that involve bicycle riders, we at Pacific Attorney Group understand how to approach these cases in order to properly represent our clients' interests and assist them in holding the negligent party responsible for their conduct.
