Injured in a Bike Accident?

Bicycle Accidents

Riding a bicycle is one of the best ways to get around Philadelphia, but who wants to deal with frustrated drivers, potholes, and car doors that open out of nowhere? Not me. As an avid biker myself, I know that when it comes to an auto accident, cyclists have much more to lose than drivers. Whether your injuries were caused by a driver who “didn’t see you” or a driver who opened their door directly into the bike lane, you deserve compensation.

What Should I Do If I’m Injured In A Bicycle Accident?

  • Try to get the driver’s information. If they stop, they should exchange insurance information with you just as one would in a car accident.
  • If they flee the scene, attempt to get their license plate number and call the police.
  • Make sure you get a police report and the DC#. This number will be very useful later.
  • Check yourself for injures and go to the hospital to get checked out. Even if you just have cuts and bruises, you may have internal injuries that are not immediately apparent.
  • Call an experienced personal injury lawyer to begin an immediate investigation and protect your rights.
