Bicycle Accidents
The sport and hobby of bicycle riding
has grown in recent years. Unfortunately
the number of accidents and injuries
has grown as well.
These cases
are similar to motor vehicle accidents
since the operator of a bicycle must
obey the same "rules of
the road" that
the motor vehicle operator must obey.
Because of lack of attention or respect
for bicycles, motorists collide with
or force off the road many bicycles
causing terrible injuries or death.
Defensive driving and a bicycle helmet
can do only so much to protect you.
