BICYCLE ACCIDENTS ATTORNEY IN SAN BERNARDINO & REDLANDS, CALIFORNIA
With the proliferation of bike lanes and bicycle sharing services, more people are riding bikes to get around in cities. Unfortunately, this has led to more bicycle accidents. The cause is often drivers who are not familiar with the rights bicyclists have on the road. Cars often use bicycle lanes as turn lanes and cause serious injury to the cyclist.
In some cases automobile drivers simply do not pick up drivers in their line of sight and turn right into them. Bicyclists can even be injured by a stationary vehicle when an absent minded driver or passenger “doors” a passing cyclist.
