Cycling is not just a mode of transportation; it’s a passion, a lifestyle, and for many, a way to connect with the world around them. Unfortunately, sharing the road with motor vehicles doesn’t always guarantee safety. If you or someone you care about has been injured in a bicycle accident, you deserve an experienced legal representative who understands the challenges cyclists face on Connecticut’s roads.
At The Pickel Law Firm, we are dedicated to advocating for cyclists who have been hurt due to someone else’s negligence. From collisions with distracted drivers to poorly maintained roadways, we’ll fight to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
Common Causes of Bicycle Accidents
Bicycle accidents can occur for many reasons. However, some of the most common causes include:
- Distracted driving, such as texting behind the wheel
- Drivers failing to yield to cyclists at intersections
- Speeding or reckless driving
- Failure to adhere to Connecticut’s three-foot passing law
- Dooring incidents (when a driver opens their car door without checking for approaching cyclists
- Poorly maintained roads or hazardous debris
Understanding the cause of your accident is vital to building a strong case. Our team thoroughly investigates every detail to ensure no evidence is overlooked.
