Be Aware of Bicyclists, Walkers and Runners Sharing the Road
Auto drivers need to make sure they look both ways when they approach an intersection, especially drivers making a right turn. Often drivers making a right turn will look left and make the turn when they see an opening. They do not realize a runner, walker, bicyclist, skateboarder or someone riding a moped or scooter may be on their right, crossing the street.
Other car accidents involving a bicycle, pedestrian or moped are caused by driver negligence or recklessness, including running a stop sign or stoplight and not observing crosswalks. Accidents also happen in areas where drivers are focused more on the surrounding vehicles, including parking lot accidents, when drivers are trying to back up or fit into a space and are oblivious to the person walking right behind them or the bicyclist coming by beside their car.
If you were injured in a bicycle accident, pedestrian accident, or moped or scooter accident, please schedule a free consultation and case evaluation by calling Mitchell Hurst Jacobs & Dick toll free at 866.675.4217 or filling out our online intake form.
