Cumming Bicycle Accident Attorney

Seeking Justice for Cycling Injuries in Cumming, GA

Cyclists who are involved in collisions are far more likely than car and truck drivers and passengers to suffer serious injury or be killed. For example, the Georgia Governor's Office of Highway Safety says that there were a total of 936 bicycle accidents in 2006, the most recent year for which data are available. Out of these accidents, 78% resulted in injury and 1.8% resulted in death. In comparison, only 26.7% of all passenger automobile crashes resulted in injury and 0.2% resulted in death.

Even the most safety-conscious cyclist has practically no protection in the event of an accident and is, in most cases, fully exposed to the violent force of impact. While it is true that bicycle riders are sometimes to blame for accidents, it often happens that the rider can do little or nothing to avoid being hit by a reckless, distracted, or drunk driver.
