Experienced bicycle accident lawyers can help you pursue the full compensation you are owed for your hospital bills, missed income, and other losses. It can be challenging to go toe-to-toe with large insurance companies and come away with fair settlements.
Bicycle traffic deaths are soaring and California leads the nation. Between 2010 and 2014, deaths involving bicyclists soared by 16%. California won the dubious recognition of being the most dangerous state in the nation for cyclists, with 338 people killed in collisions with automobiles.
According to the Berkely Safe Transportation Research and Education Center (SafeTREC)
New laws have been enacted to protect bikers from automobiles. The Three Feet for Safety Act requires motorists to provide bikers space to ride, or to slow down until it is prudent to pass if traffic or roadway conditions do not allow them to provide enough room.
Whether a driver failed to provide three feet of safety, or violated another roadway law that caused your injuries, RMD Law is equipped to fully investigate your accident and determine the liable party.
No two accidents are the same, but they all have one thing in common: they should never be handled without professional help.

Over $100,000,000 total recent personal injury wins for our clients. Our dedicated personal injury lawyers are eager to fight for you.
RMD Law found an insurance code violation by the defense insurance company in a bicycle accident case. With smart lawyering, we used the violation to argue that the $100,000 policy limits no longer applied.
The insurance company wrongfully refused to pay our client the $100k policy limit in a rollover auto accident. RMD Law refused to take no for an answer, and filed a lawsuit alleging bad faith, ultimately winning millions for our deserving client.
Confidential bad faith settlement – a negligent driver t-boned our client at a red light resulting in severe spinal injuries. The defendant’s insurance company unreasonably refused to pay the $100K policy limit. RMD Law filed a lawsuit seeking the true value of the case. Policy was opened, and the client settled for an amount vastly higher than the original limits.

In a crash between a motor vehicle and a bicyclist, the latter is more vulnerable and more likely to be injured or killed. While California has laws to protect cyclists, each rider needs to do their part to help keep the roads safe and protect themselves from any untoward injuries.
Below are some tips to keep you safe:
Helmets can significantly reduce the risk of severe head injuries
This includes stopping at red lights and stop signs, yielding the right-of-way when required, and using appropriate hand signals for turns.
Increase your visibility to motorists by wearing bright or reflective clothing, especially during low-light conditions.
Avoid sudden swerves or lane changes without signaling.
If there are no designated facilities, ride in the same direction as traffic on the right side of the road.
Slow down, scan for traffic, and make eye contact with drivers before proceeding.
Stay vigilant for parked vehicles and be prepared for car doors opening unexpectedly.
Understand that large vehicles like trucks and buses have significant blind spots so try to stay out.
Regularly check your bicycle for proper functioning, including brakes, tires, and lights.
Avoid using headphones or mobile devices while riding.
Use hand signals to indicate your turns or lane changes and make eye contact with drivers to ensure they are aware of your presence and intentions
