Bicycle Accidents in Utah
Cyclists face unique risks on Utah roadways, especially when drivers fail to yield or don’t pay attention. According to the Utah Department of Public Safety, collisions involving bicyclists often result in serious or even life-changing injuries because cyclists have little protection. Medical bills, rehabilitation, and missed work can create additional stress for injured riders and their families. Knowing what to do after a bicycle crash is key to protecting your health and your rights.
If you are ever involved in a bike accident, keep these points in mind:
- Call for Help: Dial 911 immediately and get medical attention, even if you feel okay. Some injuries may not be obvious at first.
- Wait for Police: Stay at the scene and provide your statement to officers. An official report is crucial when filing insurance or legal claims.
- Gather Evidence: Take photos of your bike, the vehicle, road conditions, and any visible injuries. Get the driver’s contact and insurance details.
- Find Witnesses: Ask bystanders for their contact information. Witness statements can help prove what happened later on.
- Speak with an Attorney: A bicycle accident lawyer can help you navigate complex claims, negotiate with insurance companies, and seek fair compensation.
