Cycling Accident
Cycling is cheap, great for your health and the environment and thanks to the Government; local authorities are being encouraged to put measures in place to promote this activity in towns and cities across the country.
Unfortunately, no amount of intervention will prevent accidents from happening and cycling accident claims will continue to be necessary.
If you have suffered an injury or damages as a result of a careless road user or a badly maintained road you could be able to claim for compensation for:
- Personal Injury – such as broken bones, soft tissue damage or psychological injury
- Loss of income due to your injury
- Damages to your bicycle, equipment and personal belongings
- Liability disputes
Cyclists on our roads are vulnerable; modern cars are designed to protect their passengers, not what or who they may collide with, cyclists are small compared to other road users and have just two wheels, making them harder for other road users to see.
According to the Transport Research Laboratory (TRL), 40% of cyclists admitted to hospital in England have head injuries. A cycle helmet is a sensible precaution and will be taken into account by a judge assessing damages, in fact, a cyclist who has not taken proper precautions to protect themselves may now even find themselves partially liable for their own injuries.
With this in mind, it is essential for cyclists or those involved in a cycling injury to ensure that they seek professional legal advice as quickly as possible.
