How Bike Crashes Happen

Bike accidents happen when you least expect it, but the effects can be long-lasting. Here are some of the common bike crashes we see at Schwed, Adams & McGinley, P.A.

Distracted Driving

One of the common causes of bicycle accidents is distracted driving. When drivers are not fully focused on the road, they may fail to notice cyclists sharing the road with them, leading to collisions and injuries.

Failure to Yield

Another common cause is when drivers fail to yield the right of way to bicyclists. This disregard for traffic rules can result in serious accidents and harm to cyclists.

Dooring

Dooring accidents occur when a driver or passenger opens their car door into the path of an oncoming cyclist. These sudden obstructions can lead to severe injuries for the bicyclist.

Right Hooks

Right hooks happen when a vehicle makes a right turn in front of a cyclist traveling in the same direction. Without ample warning or space, this maneuver can result in dangerous crashes.

Holding Drivers Accountable for Preventable Collisions

At Schwed, Adams & McGinley, we understand the importance of holding negligent drivers accountable for their actions. Our attorneys have insight into the defense strategies commonly used in such cases, as we have team members who previously worked on the defense side before representing plaintiffs. This unique perspective allows us to anticipate and counter the tactics employed by the opposing party and insurers effectively.

Dear Schwed Law Office.

After speaking with Schwed Law, I felt she gave me hope. The minute I gave them my accident report, I was confident I was going to be taken care of. My personal injury left me in a lot of pain. I was frustrated and exhausted. I had horrible headaches, neck and shoulder spasms and many restless nights. This impeded special outings and meetings with family and friends. I knew the bills were going to be taken care of. So I just focused on getting treated for my injury and feeling better. I never once had to call to follow up on anything.

I was so impressed with how fast my case was settled. I am so grateful for how I was treated and cared for. I highly recommend the offices of Schwed Law. Their professionalism and expertise were enough to put me at ease with all my questions and concerns from the beginning.
