About Bicycle Accidents
National statistics affirm that bike accidents and fatalities are, unfortunately, on the rise. The Governor’s Highway Safety Association (GHSA) reported a 16 percent increase in cyclists killed in motor vehicle accidents between 2010 and 2012. Children and teenagers are often victims, but the statistics show an increase in accidents involving adults. Bike fatalities among people 20 and older have increased over 60 percent in the past 40 years.
When a bike rider is hit by a car or truck, there is little protection from serious bodily injury . At Cochran Douglas, we’ve seen many cases of spinal cord injury and traumatic brain injury, along with heartbreaking wrongful death cases. When negligent driving results in these types of devastating casualties, victims and families are entitled to significant compensation and we can fight for your right to restitution.
