Bicycle Accident Lawyer
Ontario Bicycle Accident Lawyer
In Ontario, accidents involving bicycles occur frequently, often as the result of drivers not paying attention to cyclists sharing the road. Some of the most common bicycle collisions occur in the following situations:
(1) a vehicle making a right turn across the cyclist’s lane of travel;
(2) vehicle executing a left turn at an uncontrolled (or non-dedicated left turn) intersection;
(3) dooring; and
(4) a vehicle or cyclist passing on the right.
Biking in Ontario is very popular. In urban settings, people often bike as a means of transportation. Biking is equally popular as a recreational activity,
particularly along the scenic roads around the GTA. The lack of suitable bike paths and lanes, combined with inattentive drivers and traffic congestion, often leads to serious bicycle accidents.
Each year many people in Ontario are killed or suffer personal injury from bicycle collisions. Even in a minor collision with a motor vehicle, bicycle riders generally suffer significant and serious injury. A bicycle rider has a great disadvantage because of the level of personal exposure. In many cases, motor vehicles hitting bicycle riders are negligent.
Common personal injuries from Ontario bike accidents include: scratches, cuts, broken bones, catastrophic injuries, spinal cord injuries, brain damage and sometimes death.
If you have been injured or tragically lost a family member in a Ontario bicycle accident, your recovery may depend on your decision to consult an experienced Ontario personal injury lawyer prepared to investigate the collision and pursue a fair settlement or trial verdict.
