How Negligent Drivers Cause Bicycle Accidents in New York City

Most often, a bicycle accident can be traced back to the behavior of a negligent motorist. Distracted and careless drivers can strike an unsuspecting cyclist, causing catastrophic injuries that forever change a cyclist’s life. Some drivers even claim the lives of innocent cyclists through their negligence.

Our NYC bike accident lawyers are committed to holding at-fault drivers responsible for:

  • Driving while distracted
  • Texting while driving
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
  • Speeding or driving too fast for current road/weather conditions
  • Failure to yield the right of way to a cyclist
  • Red light and stop sign violations
  • Reckless driving
  • Carelessness

You have rights if you were struck by a car while riding your bike. Let us protect these – call (800) 498-2782 today to get started. We are standing by to help.
