Bicycle Accidents

Every day a cyclist is badly injured on busy Ontario roads. Negligence of the driver is the most common and prominent factor in a bicycle accident. Unfortunately for cyclists most motorists don’t seem to understand that bike riders have the same rights and responsibilities as any other vehicle on the road.

With the renewed popularity of bicycle riding for leisure, for sport, and for transportation accidents involving cyclists continue to increase. Injuries sustained to a bicyclist can be fatal because of lack of protection. Adult and child bike accidents can leave the victim with head injuries, spine injuries, fractures and a large financial burden.

There are a number of decisions that need to be made promptly and that may affect your ability to recover full compensation.

Injuries to the back and neck, broken limbs, and particularly head trauma of any kind require immediate medical attention not only to protect your health, but to protect your legal rights. A Toronto personal injury lawyer will work with you every step of the way to make sure that you get the treatment you deserve from the best available medical specialists.
