Delaware Bicycle Accidents
Each year in Delaware, there are a number of bicycle accidents that take place. While certainly other types of crashes are more common, a bicycle crash has the potential to be extremely destructive and deadly. This is because riders are completely exposed with no protection from the impact of the collision. To make matters worse, bicyclists are often not at fault for the accidents in which they are involved and they take place very suddenly and unexpectedly. All of this can add up to tragedy when a bicycle accident occurs.
In a bicycle accident case, many questions must be asked and answered before moving forward. A large number of bicycle crashes occur on crowded roadways and involve vehicles. This means that driver negligence sometimes plays a role in the crash. In this instance, accident victims and their families may have certain valuable legal rights following the crash.
