Daytona Beach Bicycle Accident Lawyer

While only 1% of all trips taken in the United States are by bicycle, bicyclists face a higher risk of crash-related injury and deaths than occupants of motor vehicles do. In 2010 in the U.S., almost 800 bicyclists were killed and there were an estimated 515,000 emergency department visits due to bicycle-related injuries. Data from 2005 show fatal and non-fatal crash related injuries to bicyclists resulted in lifetime medical costs and productivity losses of $5 billion. (According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)).

The law typically requires cyclists to use the roads (rather than pedestrian walkways). When using the roads, cyclists are entitled to the same rights and protections afforded to autos.
