Common Causes of Bicycle Accidents in Mesa
Many bicycle crashes are caused by drivers not paying attention or failing to share the road. Common causes we see include:
- Failing to yield at intersections or bike lanes
- Right turns without checking for cyclists
- Distracted or texting drivers
- Opening a car door into a cyclist’s path (“dooring”)
- Speeding or aggressive driving
- Driving under the influence
Even if you’re not sure exactly what happened, it’s worth having an experienced Mesa bicycle accident attorney review your case and explain your options.
Common Injuries in Bicycle Crashes
Cyclists are exposed to the road and surrounding vehicles, so injuries can be serious—even in low-speed crashes. We’ve helped clients recover from:
- Broken bones and fractures
- Head injuries and concussions
- Spinal cord damage
- Soft tissue injuries
- Road rash and lacerations
- Internal bleeding
Don’t assume your injuries will heal quickly or that insurance will offer what’s fair. Talk to a Mesa bike accident lawyer before making any decisions.
