Phoenix Bicycle Accident Lawyers Weintraub & Weintraub
More than 95 percent of all bicycle-car accidents in Arizona result in the personal injury or death of the cyclist.
Wearing a bicycle helmet cuts the risk of traumatic brain injury by 85 percent. Helmets are proven lifesavers when riding a bike on public roadways.
In Arizona, bicyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as drivers on the road. Cyclists have to obey the traffic signals and stop signs; they have to have lights at night; and they have to yield to pedestrians. No more than two bikes can ride side by side, and a cyclist always has to have a least one hand on the handlebars.
When a bike accident occurs, the responsibility of the cyclist in obeying bicycle rules and regulations will be considered. If a car is involved, the negligence of the car driver will also be considered. If the driver is found at least partially responsible, the personal injuries of the bicyclist may be compensated.
If you or a loved one has been involved in a bike accident, then you may have a legal claim for damages. Please feel free to contact us for a free, initial legal consultation.
