Protecting the Rights of Injured Bicyclists
in Brevard County

In Florida, bicyclists follow the same general traffic laws and have the same rights-of-way as drivers of motor vehicles. In Brevard County, bicyclists are everywhere riding bikes throughout Central Florida. Unfortunately, cell phones, text messaging, and other distractions while driving can result in many drivers being unaware of a cyclist’s right of way and a lack of attention for their presence on the roads.

As a result, hundreds of bicyclists suffer serious injury or death each year after being hit by a motor vehicle. Collisions involving a Palm Bay, FL, bicycle in a bike lane can result in very serious injuries and thoroughly expensive medical bills.

Bicycle accidents are all too common in Merritt Island. An accident lawyer from Alpizar Law, LLC can provide bike accident victims with a free consultation to discuss the circumstances of the collision. Alpizar Law, LLC has recovered millions of dollars for accident victims in the Brevard County area and has the experience to help you file a successful claim for compensation after a bicycle accident.

Types of Bicycle Accident Injuries

Cyclists have little protection in an accident, especially one that involves a moving vehicle. It is much like a pedestrian crossing an intersection because they are completely exposed to the impact of the car. When a motorist strikes a bicycle rider, the serious consequences can be very severe.

When a bicyclist is out for a ride on the roads in Central Florida, that individual is completely open to the possibility of a serious accident with a car. The vehicle itself provides some level of protection to the motorist, but the bicycle rider has no protection like drivers of cars do. Without any barrier between the rider and the other vehicles or road, a cyclist is put in a very dangerous situation and may incur severe damages. Some of the most common bicycle accident injuries include:

  • road rash
  • broken bones
  • traumatic brain injury
  • spinal cord injuries
  • internal bleeding
  • organ damage

These injuries can result in lasting or permanent disfigurement or disability and deserve compensation for any immediate and future damages.
