What a Good Bicycle Accident Lawyer Can Do for You!
Bike riders are protected by the rules of the road. Unfortunately many motorists are unaware of this and may even have a belligerent attitude toward cyclists. Your Pasco County bicycle accident attorney will review the circumstances of your particular case, assess your insurance coverage, and provide you with options. Your attorney will work with you from your first consultation right through the entire legal process.
Here are some things to know:
- Cyclists are entitled to their lane in the road while traveling in the same direction as traffic.
- Cars can pass you but must give at least 3 feet of clearance. If 3 feet of clearance is not available then they may not pass until there is.
- Drivers often don't look for bicycles but it is their responsibility to do so.
- If you have auto insurance, your PIP coverage and if needed your uninsured motorist insurance will cover you. It is then your insurance company's responsibility to pursue the driver's insurance for coverage.
- If possible take pictures of the accident scene.
- Get names and addresses of any witnesses if possible.
- Call your insurance carrier and report the accident.
- Call an attorney you can trust!
