Common Causes of Bicycle Accidents
Determining liability in a bicycle crash often requires a detailed investigation. Common causes include:
- Negligent drivers – Motorists often fail to yield, drive distracted, or pass cyclists unsafely.
- Hazardous road conditions – Potholes, uneven pavement, or poor signage can cause serious accidents. Government agencies or contractors may be liable.
- Cyclist fault – In some cases, the cyclist may share responsibility, especially if traffic laws were violated.
