Bicyclists in Florida have the same rights on the road as a car or truck, but the much-smaller profile of a cyclist often means that a distracted driver doesn’t see them. When a bike and a car collide, the cyclist often suffers grave injuries and may become disabled. The effects of a bike accident on your life reverberate, impacting your ability to work, care for your family, or even live independently. At Presser Law, P.A., we advocate for the rights of people like you who have been hurt in accidents caused by someone else’s negligence. Call our Gotha, FL bicycle accident lawyer today to learn about your eligibility for compensation.

Even with a bicycle helmet (which is not mandatory for adults in Florida, brain trauma and facial damage are common in bicycle accidents. Added to that is the likelihood of multiple bone fractures, soft tissue damage, and spinal cord injuries, and there’s a good chance that you’ll need medical care for weeks or longer following the crash. Your injuries affect all areas of your life, from whether you can work or care for your family to whether you can take care of your own personal needs without assistance.
The at-fault party in a bicycle accident should be liable for the harm they caused you and your financial losses. This could be a distracted driver or someone who doesn’t check the bike lane before opening a car door, or a city or county that failed to ensure bike paths and roadways used by cyclists were safe for two-wheeled travel.
