As one can imagine, the slightest car-bicycle accident can cause a bicyclist to sustain severe physical injuries and emotional trauma. Some of the common reasons that can cause a car-bicycle accident are:
A Connecticut bike collision lawyer can obtain the police report, review pictures, analyze the scene of the accident, interview witnesses, and examine available surveillance material.
A bicycle accident can result in deadly injuries despite whether the bicyclist wore protective equipment such as a helmet. These injuries can involve cuts, friction burns, spinal cord damage, broken ribs and other fractures, and traumatic brain injury.
