Cyclists Encounter Serious Right of Way Violations

Most people, including lawyers, are unaware of the constant right of way violations cyclists encounter every day. Whether it’s cars entering our lane, passing dangerously close to us, or ignoring the designated bike lane, the threat of injury is ever-present. Only a lawyer who is a cyclist understands this reality and the extraordinary measures we take to avoid accidents. We ride with the utmost caution. Drivers, in contrast, are distracted and unaware of their surroundings. Still, holding a driver accountable is difficult because of society’s lack of understanding about cycling and misconception that cyclists are causing the danger. Of course, as cyclists we know the opposite is true. That’s why you need a lawyer who is a cyclist, and has the unique ability to educate the legal system about the realities of cycling. The lawyers at Injury Law Group are experienced bike lawyers who are part of our cycling community and are invested in protecting it. We have won millions of dollars for injured cyclists. We are one of California's top rated bike accident law firms. We stand behind all cyclists. We take on even the most challenging cases that others see as unwinnable, and through hard work and dedication, we win them.

Our Bike Lawyers Fight for Cyclists and Win

Due to the unique challenges presented in bicycle accidents and societal misconceptions about cyclists, it can be difficult to convince the legal system, including most lawyers, that you had the right of way. You need an attorney who is an expert at proving bike accident cases and is vested in the cause to protect cyclists so they will fight for you. Our bicycle lawyers understand the dangers cyclists face every day from distracted drivers and constant right-of-way violations. Police reports are often biased against cyclists, especially if the officer is unfamiliar with cycling, which is most of the time. Drivers give one-sided statements at the scene while you are in an ambulance on the way to the hospital, shaping the officer’s perception before you have had a chance to tell your side of the story. We know how to overcome these challenges. We educate and help the legal system understand the constant threats faced by cyclists and the extraordinary measures we as cyclists take to avoid accidents. As fellow cyclists and members of the cycling community, we are invested in protecting all cyclists. We genuinely care for you, we respect you, and we stand beside you until justice is served.

"I was a client of Injury Law Group. The case was a motor vehicle versus bicycle. After the accident I had lost my transportation and income due to the fact I was going to school with the financial aid of my GI bill. As a result of my injuries I couldn’t continue school until my health was back to normal. Mark made sure that I had the best medical interventions and was paid full MSRP for my high end bike..."

"On a sunny afternoon in April, I was on a bike ride and a distracted SUV driver ran me off the road. My arms and legs were badly scraped and my bike was destroyed. I attempted to navigate the legal situation on my own but the insurance company said the accident was my fault. Despite being hit while in the bike lane they would only cover 25% of my repair and medical bills. I decided to call Mark..."

Bicycle Lawyer

When cyclists and vehicles abide by the rules of the road, the two can coexist in a safe manner without incident.  But when a careless driver disregards the roadway signs and drives in a protected bike lane, or is inattentive to a cyclist’s right of way and cuts off the cyclist, the consequences can be catastrophic.  When two cars collide, frequently both drivers can walk away from the crash.  But when a vehicle collides with a bicycle, the cyclist will usually suffer much more serious injuries than if he or she had been in the enclosed cabin of a vehicle.  If you or a loved one has been injured in a cycling accident and is looking for a San Diego bicycle accident lawyer, we can help you.

Cause of the Accident

The number one cause of bike accidents is a driver failing to see the bicyclist.  For this reason, bicycle accidents are more likely to occur in the early morning or evening when vision is decreased or is obstructed by the sun or diminishing daylight.  Even with bicycle reflectors, many drivers claim they never saw a bicycle until the moment before the collision. Another common cause of a bike accident is a drunk driver.  Driving under the influence of alcohol is a huge problem in our society and leads to many deaths and serious injuries.  A driver of a vehicle who is intoxicated is much more likely not to see a cyclist then if he or she had not been drinking. Other common causes of bicycle accidents include situations where a driver of a car makes an unsafe left-hand or right-hand turn clipping a cyclist, sideswiping a cyclist, colliding with the rear of a cyclist, or when a vehicle suddenly changes lanes in front of a cyclists.

Bicycle Helmet Law

California has a bike helmet law providing that anyone under the age of 18 riding a bicycle must wear an approved, properly fitted bicycle helmet. Whether you or your family member who is injured in a bicycle accident was wearing a helmet does not bear on who is legally responsible for causing the accident, but depending on the facts of your case it could bear on the amount of compensation you can recover from the driver.
