Bicycle Collision Injuries
In Oklahoma, bicycles are considered vehicles and must obey the same laws as other vehicles. Motorists are supposed to respect the rights of cyclists to be on the roads but unfortunately, many negligent drivers do not see bicycle riders or they make reckless maneuvers that cause bike wrecks and their riders to get injured. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) estimates that 42,000 bicyclists are injured in collisions on US roadways every year and according to the Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA) tragically, 1,149 cyclists died. The National Safety Council notes that 937 of these deaths were in collisions with motor vehicles. Cyclist injuries are serious and if you or someone you love is suffering from one, an Oklahoma bicycle accident lawyer can help you to determine if you can try to hold the person who caused your injuries, liable for their negligence.
Compensation For Bike Accident Injuries
When a negligent driver or someone else on the road causes an accident and an innocent cyclist is injured because of it, the driver’s insurance should pay for expenses that are the result of the victim’s injuries such as their medical bills, loss of income, and property damage. When a bike rider is seriously injured, the amount that insurance companies are initially willing to pay is often not anywhere near enough to cover all of their financial needs now and ones that are likely to arise in the future. If you or someone you love is the victim of a cycling accident, it is important to discuss your situation with a knowledgeable personal injury lawyer before you talk to insurance companies, especially before you accept any offers. Having a lawyer who is skilled at battling with insurance companies to make sure their clients get the maximum amount of money they are entitled to in your corner, can protect your rights.
