Steps to Take After a Bicycle Accident in California

Taking the right steps immediately after a bicycle accident can significantly impact the outcome of your case. Our experienced California bicycle accident lawyers recommend the following actions:

Ensure Safety First

Your immediate priority should be personal safety. Move to a safe location off the road if possible, and assess yourself for injuries. Even if you feel relatively unharmed, remember that adrenaline can mask injury symptoms temporarily.

Call Emergency Services

Always call 911 to report the accident, even if injuries seem minor. Having police respond to the scene ensures an official accident report will be filed—crucial documentation for your claim. Request medical assistance if needed or if there's any uncertainty about injuries.

Gather Comprehensive Information

If your condition allows, collect detailed information from all parties involved:

  • Complete contact information from the driver(s)

  • Vehicle license plate numbers

  • Insurance information

  • Contact details for any witnesses

  • Badge numbers of responding officers

Document the Accident Scene Thoroughly

Evidence from the accident scene can be invaluable to your case. Use your smartphone to take multiple photographs from different angles of:

  • The overall accident scene

  • Your bicycle and any damage

  • The vehicle(s) involved, including license plates

  • Your visible injuries

  • Road conditions and any relevant traffic signs or signals

  • Weather and visibility conditions

Seek Immediate Medical Attention

Even if you believe your injuries are minor, always get a medical evaluation as soon as possible. Some serious injuries, such as concussions or internal bleeding, may not present obvious symptoms immediately. Additionally, prompt medical documentation creates an official record connecting your injuries to the accident—essential for your legal claim.

Preserve Evidence

Keep your damaged bicycle and equipment in their post-accident condition. Don't repair or replace anything before consulting with an attorney. Similarly, preserve torn or bloodied clothing as potential evidence. These items can provide compelling proof of the accident's impact.

Consult with a California Bicycle Accident Lawyer

Before speaking with any insurance representatives, contact an experienced bicycle accident attorney. Insurance adjusters often try to obtain statements that could later be used to minimize your claim. Our legal team can handle all communications with insurance companies, ensuring your rights are protected from the start.

Common Causes of Bicycle Accidents in California

Understanding the common causes of bicycle accidents can help in identifying liability and pursuing appropriate compensation. Our California bicycle accident attorneys regularly handle cases involving:

Distracted Driving

One of the leading causes of bicycle accidents in California involves drivers who fail to give the road their full attention. Whether texting, adjusting entertainment systems, eating, or engaging in other distractions, these motorists often fail to notice cyclists sharing the road. Our legal team knows how to investigate and prove distracted driving claims, frequently utilizing cell phone records, witness testimony, and other evidence to establish negligence.

Failure to Yield Right of Way

Many bicycle accidents occur when drivers fail to yield the right of way to cyclists at intersections, while making turns, or when merging into bike lanes. California law generally grants cyclists the same rights and responsibilities as motor vehicles, yet many drivers either don't know or disregard these laws. Our attorneys are well-versed in California's bicycle laws and can effectively demonstrate when a driver's failure to yield constitutes negligence.

Dangerous Dooring Accidents

A particularly hazardous situation for cyclists in California involves "dooring"—when occupants of parked vehicles suddenly open doors into the path of an oncoming cyclist. These accidents can cause severe injuries as cyclists often have no time to react. Our legal team has extensive experience handling dooring cases and identifying all responsible parties, including not just the person who opened the door but potentially the vehicle owner as well.

Excessive Speed

Speeding drivers pose a significant threat to cyclists as increased speed reduces reaction time and increases the severity of injuries when collisions occur. In areas with designated bike lanes or routes that are popular with cyclists, speed limits are particularly important for ensuring safety. Our attorneys know how to document evidence of speeding, whether through witness statements, traffic camera footage, or accident reconstruction experts.

Driving Under the Influence

Impaired drivers remain one of the most dangerous threats to cyclists on California roads. Alcohol and drugs significantly impair judgment, reaction time, and perception—often with devastating consequences for vulnerable road users like cyclists. When DUI is involved in a bicycle accident case, our legal team pursues not only compensation for your injuries but often additional punitive damages to hold intoxicated drivers fully accountable.

Poor Road Conditions

Sometimes the cause of a bicycle accident isn't another driver but dangerous road conditions that should have been addressed by local government entities or property owners. Potholes, inadequate signage, improper road design, or debris in bike lanes can all lead to serious accidents. Our attorneys have experience bringing claims against municipal entities and understand the specific procedural requirements for these types of cases.

Understanding Compensation in Bicycle Accident Cases

Victims of bicycle accidents in California may be entitled to various forms of compensation, depending on the specifics of their case. Our experienced bicycle accident attorneys work diligently to secure full and fair compensation for all damages, including:

Comprehensive Medical Expenses

We fight to ensure coverage for all medical treatments related to your bicycle accident injuries, including:

  • Emergency room care and hospitalization

  • Surgical procedures and follow-up care

  • Prescription medications

  • Physical therapy and rehabilitation

  • Mental health counseling

  • Specialized medical equipment

  • Future medical treatments for ongoing or permanent injuries

Lost Income and Earning Capacity

A serious bicycle accident can significantly impact your ability to work. Our attorneys calculate and pursue compensation for:

  • Wages lost during your recovery period

  • Diminished earning capacity if you cannot return to your previous occupation

  • Lost benefits, bonuses, and other employment-related compensation

  • Future income losses for permanent disabilities

Pain and Suffering

Beyond economic damages, we recognize the profound physical pain and emotional distress that often follow bicycle accidents. California law allows recovery for these non-economic damages, which can include:

  • Physical pain and discomfort

  • Emotional distress and mental anguish

  • Loss of enjoyment of life

  • Depression, anxiety, or PTSD resulting from the accident

  • Scarring or disfigurement

Property Damage

We help recover costs to repair or replace your bicycle and any damaged personal property, including:

  • The bicycle itself

  • Specialized cycling equipment and gear

  • Electronic devices damaged in the crash

  • Personal items carried during the ride

Punitive Damages in Egregious Cases

In cases involving particularly reckless behavior—such as drunk driving or extremely negligent actions—California law may allow for additional punitive damages. These are designed not just to compensate you but to punish the responsible party and deter similar behavior in the future. Our legal team identifies when such damages may be appropriate and builds the necessary case to pursue them.
