Bicycle Accidents
Bicycle crashes with a car, truck, or another rider. Say the road and whether a police report exists.
Tell us about your caseBike lanes, doors, and right hooks
The local searches are dooring on a bike lane, a right hook by a turning car, and a driver who passed too close. People also ask whether a bicycle has to follow the vehicle code. A crash with a rideshare car gets searched under both bicycle accidents and Uber accidents.
Send the road, the date, and whether a police report exists. Hospital treatment matters more than a guess about speed.
The deadline question
People ask how long they have. For many injury claims against a private driver in Pennsylvania, the lawsuit period is two years from the crash. A city or SEPTA vehicle is a shorter, different path.
Nothing on this page is a prediction of what a case is worth, and it is not legal advice. A message asks the desk to review the facts and refer them.
What to send
Bicycle crashes with a car, truck, or another rider. Say the road and whether a police report exists.
The useful first facts are the place, the date, the court if there is one, and what happened. Records can wait until a lawyer asks for them.
How a referral works
A message asks the desk to read the facts and refer them to a lawyer who handles this work. It does not hire that lawyer, and it does not create an attorney-client relationship.
The lawyer who receives the introduction decides whether to take the matter and talks with you about deadlines and fees.
